27 July 2013: AZ -Ajax

[Kowalczyk]

First official fixture of the new season: AZ - Ajax for the Johan Cruijff Schaal (= the Dutch Super Cup).

Match to be played at the Amsterdam ArenA. Cup winners AZ are formally the home team, so I assume Ajax will wear away kits.

Kick-off time: 20.00 CET.

Why arnt Mike van der Hoorn, Derk Boerrigter or Davy Klassen on the list?

[Amol]

I guess van der Hoorn is still being groomed. Boerrigter picked up a small injury.

Dunno about Klassen.

[SPL]

about to watch it but we have a thunder storm overhead so may disconnect this soon !

[Orange14]

Anyone have a stream??

[SPL]

not at the moment

[Orange14]

Found a WiziWig stream that didn't have any sound. The midfield looked really good on the ball but couldn't get it in to Sigthorrson. A couple of shots from distance and that was all. Vermeer made one decent save but was otherwise not troubled.

[Cruijff]

Perhaps this will work: http://www.wiziwig.tv/broadcast.php?mat ... art=sports

[Orange14]

looks like the feed from the Arena died at about the 60th minute. I think Blind was fouled on the AZ breakaway and the goal should not have counted. It looked like FdB thought the same thing. AZ have not played all that well but were up 1-0 when my feed went out.

[Cedric]

And now it's 2-0. My Greek stream is now broadcasting some marvellous ads so I didn't see it...

Edit: ah, 2-1, as AZ scored another goal but in the wrong net.

[Amol]

Yeah all the links stopped working all of a sudden. Apparently we got one back though

[Amol]

2-2!!!!


Siggy scores from a rebound of a Toby shot.

[martinkohout]

2-2!

[Amol]

Extra time

[Orange14]

OT for the Cup title! Alderwiereld's shot was really wicked and Esteban was just lucky to get his hands on it.

[Orange14]

Well that's more like it. Nice team play!

[Amol]

3-2!! Great cross by Eriksen and great header by De Jong

[Orange14]

One piece of silverware down and three more to go!!!!

[SPL]

good start to the season first trophy won

[aveslacker]

Let's go for the treble. Just winning the eredivisie is getting too easy.

[Tom_]

Balls! There goes our chance to win the eredivisie...

[Amol]

Balls! There goes our chance to win the eredivisie...

That's my fear too.

[Ayman]

If Ajax finish second in the league and go far in the champions league, Il be happy with that

[Ayman]

Very poor defending, especially the second goal
