Ajax officially kicked off its European journey with an easy victory over FK Vojvodina in a match in the second qualifying round of the Conference League. Under the leadership of coach Míchel, the Amsterdam team was not able to create a large margin of victory, but still showed their superiority on the field.
In this match, Míchel decided to use a central frame with Aaron Bouwman and Daley Blind returning from injury. Even though rookies like Caio Henrique and Marcos Leonardo had to sit on the bench, players like Owen Wijndal and Kasper Dolberg had the opportunity to show their abilities right from the start.
In midfield, Oscar Gloukh combined with Davy Klaassen and Youri Regeer created many opportunities for Ajax. After just three minutes, the Dutch team opened the scoring. Davy Klaassen had a good volley but was blocked by Vojvodina goalkeeper Dragan Rosic. However, when the ball bounced out, Klaassen quickly scored the opening goal for Ajax.
After this goal, Ajax created many opportunities to increase the gap but could not take advantage of it. According to football rules, the away team had an equalizer thanks to Petar Sukacev, who successfully headed in from a corner.
But Ajax did not let himself get lost for too long. Just ten minutes later, Steven Berghuis gave his team the lead for the second time. He scored after a strong finish from a corner, helping Ajax hold the advantage.
Entering the second half, Ajax played unfocused and almost let the opponent equalize, but goalkeeper Maarten Paes promptly blocked Lazar Randjelovic's shot. Immediately after that, Ajax scored to increase the score to 3-1 with a powerful shot from Oscar Gloukh, after a beautiful combination.
In the final minutes of the match, coach Míchel let young players like Don-Angelo Konadu, Abdellah Ouazane (17 years old) and Mohamed Abdalla (16 years old) play. The match gradually became boring but in the last minute, Abdalla scored on his debut, ending the match with a memorable moment for the young player and for Ajax.
What happens next
Ajax will continue to prepare for their next matches in the Conference League, where they will need to maintain good form to qualify for the qualifying rounds. The return of players like Daley Blind and Aaron Bouwman will be an important factor in building a stronger squad. Coach Míchel will need to carefully analyze matches to improve the team's scoring ability.
