Juventus vs Ajax Amsterdam – Match Review – 16 April, 2019

Ajax Amsterdam then continued its elimination of Real Madrid by producing a fascinating and inventive football poster and winning to win 2-1 away against Juventus on Tuesday, thus ending the dream of the Serie A team to win the Champions League.

Matthijs de Ligt, the 19-year-old captain of Ajax, outshot the winner in the 67th minute of the second leg, while the Dutch came from behind to win a 3-2 win and total last quarter since 1996-97.

Cristiano Ronaldo, who was aiming for a fourth consecutive Champions League title after winning the last three with Real Madrid, gave Juventus the lead in the 28th minute with a typically emphatic header, his sixth goal of the competition.

But Donny van de Beek equalized six minutes later, before the visitors pulled Juventus aside in the second half with a wave of attacks after winning a semi-final against Manchester City or Tottenham Hotspur.

"Can we continue to win the competition?" Well, we're now in the semi-finals, and we've eliminated two of the favorites in the last two rounds, the next games will be very tough, but those were also, knows? "said De Ligt.

Frenkie de Jong added, "We dominated after the break and were well worth our win, in fact, we probably should have won more."

Ajax goaltender Andre Onana scared his team when Emre Can reduced his shot on goal, but the rebound went off.

Ajax is well settled thereafter, but despite the fact that Juventus are not playing well, Ronaldo has escaped from the defenders to score the 126th goal of his career in the Champions League.

The revision of the VAR took a long time, the referee finally addressing the monitor at the edge of the field, the ball returned to the central circle, ready for the new start, before the goal is confirmed.

Ajax kept his cool and took six minutes to equalize, helped by a somewhat lucky break.

Hakim Ziyech's long shot hit a defender and fell to the shock of Van de Beek who, indifferent and well placed, calmly passed the ball beyond Wojciech Szczesny, then had to wait for another long check of VAR before confirming the goal.

Ajax took full control in the second half, and his geometric overtaking repeatedly opened the Juventus defense, which was sorely missed by injured veteran Giorgio Chiellini.

Szczesny made a one-handed save from Ziyech after the reopening of Juventus, then returned the curling shot from Van de Beek to the corner.

Juventus was at the party, but ironically, the Ajax winner was out of the lead, while De Ligt was ahead of two defenders.

Ajax had chances to score extra goals and Ronaldo's frustration was exacerbated in stoppage time while he was booked for a distant tackle from behind near the center of the circle.
