Ajax and PSV Eindhoven went head-to-head for the 2021 Johan Cruyff Shield and the visitors earn the silverware after a 4-0 win on Saturday.
Scorers: Madueke 2ā², 29ā², Vertessen 76ā², Gƶtze 89ā²
PSV caused problems for the hosts right from the start thanks to Noni Madueke. Using his pace, he ran into the box and flashed the ball past Remko Pasveer just two minutes in.
Ajax thought that they pulled a goal back through SĆ©bastien Haller, however, VAR ruled it out.
The momentum from PSVās 19-year-old attacker continued to flow and by the half-hour mark, Madueke made it 2-0 with another thumping goal.
The match would then get even worse for Erik ten Hagās side after NicolĆ”s Tagliafico was shown a straight red minutes before half-time.
Down to 10-men for the second half, Ajax struggled to try and find a way to turn things around while PSV continued to let the goals fly.
Yorbe Vertessen and Mario Gƶtze added the third and fourth goals for the visitors, securing PSV a major win at the beginning of the new season and devastation for Ajax.
