Diant Ramaj made the move from Eintracht Frankfurt to Ajax last summer. The 22-year-old goalkeeper from Stuttgart is gradually starting to feel at home in Amsterdam. "I am very happy that I can show everyone what I'm capable of, despite the difficult situation we're in."
Ajax appeared close to seizing victory against Almere City, but had to settle for a draw in injury time: 2-2. The points difference is not in their favour despite two victories in a row in the Eredivisie under trainer John van 't Schip. With international fixtures scheduled for next week, the Ajax team will not see another Eredivisie match until thirteen days from now. That's when they play Vitesse at home.
Ajax again failed to bring it home in the second group fixture against Brighton & Hove Albion on Thursday. Just like on English soil, Roberto De Zerbi's team found victory: 2-0. The score stood at 1-0 at half-time, and then it was all settled early in the second half.
Coach John van ’t Schip and his Ajax squad secured the second home victory of the week against sc Heerenveen. Ajax beat the Frisians in the Johan Cruijff ArenA with a convincing scoreline: 4-1. Steven Bergwijn and Brian Brobbey found the mark in the first half, while Chuba Akpom came in as a substitute after half time to score two more.
