AFC Ajax vs FC Twente

FC Twente stunned Ajax with a 2-1 win at the Johan Cruijff ArenA, leapfrogging their hosts into fourth place in the Eredivisie. It was a frustrating evening in Amsterdam as head coach Óscar García suffered his first defeat in charge of Ajax. Ramiz Zerrouki opened the scoring in the 18th minute, placing a sharp strike into the near corner from the edge of the box. Wout Weghorst levelled for Ajax in the 32nd minute with his first goal since October, finishing off a slick team move. But Bart van Rooij restored Twente's lead in the 79th minute, cutting inside on a brilliant solo run before firing past the keeper. Four yellow cards for the hosts told the story of a night of mounting frustration. Twente now sit fourth on 50 points, three clear of Ajax in fifth, with Champions League qualification slipping further from reach for the Amsterdam club.
