Match Report
Ajax left Breda with a comfortable 2-0 win over NAC Breda in the Eredivisie, with Mika Godts stealing the show with a stunning solo that drew immediate comparisons to Zlatan Ibrahimović's famous run on the same ground more than two decades ago.
Oscar Gloukh broke the deadlock in the 20th minute, finishing crisply after a smart pass from Godts. The Belgian winger then took centre stage just before half-time, threading past multiple NAC defenders on a mazy individual run to double the lead in the 41st minute. Ko Itakura was shown a red card in the 78th minute, leaving Ajax to see out the final stretch with ten men — though by then the points were never in doubt.
The victory keeps Ajax firmly in contention for European football with three rounds remaining, while NAC Breda stay rooted in the relegation zone and are rapidly running out of games to turn their season around.
