I don't get it either considering there's the CL semi-final first leg as well. How does anyone validate to their upper management that broadcasting two games, that too semi-finals, is a good idea on the same day? Weird. I originally thought the date was wrong.

Stan 9,333 Posted May 3, 2017 so this game is on today because May 4th is Remembrance Day in Netherlands. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stan 9,333 Posted May 3, 2017 Ajax 1-0 Lyon. Bertrand Traore glances in a header which evades the keeper. Good start by Ajax. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, at 8PM in the Netherlands tomorrow public life pretty much stops for 2 minutes, which would make playing a football game difficult as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe Schalke got the date wrong and that's why they stopped playing football against Ajax. Dolberg with a sumblime finish makes it 2-0 for Ajax. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stan 9,333 Posted May 3, 2017 2-0! Dolberg made that finish look so easy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted May 3, 2017 I predicted Lyon to win the Europa, but honestly I'd like to see Ajax win it more. Time for a "feeder league" club to win a continental competition again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
...Dan 649 Posted May 3, 2017 Lyon are a mess. Younes could and should have made it 3-0 there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tommy 4,570 Posted May 3, 2017 Younes!!!! My ex neighbour. More or less 3-0. Lyon are so bad though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SirBalon 69 858 Posted May 3, 2017 Younes is up there with one of the best germans right now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SirBalon 69 858 Posted May 3, 2017 Would be fitting for Ajax to win this cup in honour of Johan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
...Dan 649 Posted May 3, 2017 I've heard good things about Kasper Dolberg, I've seen his goal compilations, but this is the first time I've seen him play. He's been very impressive tonight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stan 9,333 Posted May 3, 2017 And that goal could be key! Valbuena gets an away goal for Lyon. The pushing forward has paid off in some sense now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
...Dan 649 Posted May 3, 2017 Yes Valbuena! Back in the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stan 9,333 Posted May 3, 2017 Goal Ajax! 4-1 now! 3-goal advantage restored. Brilliant whipped cross. Gonalons doesn't follow the winger, instead just sticks his arm up and stands still . Fancy that from your captain!? Shocking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

True Blue 850 Posted May 3, 2017 We loaned out a ready Traore and got a expensive player that isn't being given a chance. The Chelsea way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
