The Eredivisie is not over yet. As Twente forced a draw upon PSV, Ajax continue to make up what it has lost along the way. Ajax scored a victory against Groningen.
AMSTERDAM, April 16 (Reuters) – PSV Eindhoven were kept waiting for the Dutch league title after second-placed Ajax Amsterdam won 2-1 at Groningen on Wednesday.
PSV are top with 69 points and visit Vitesse Arnhem in the final game of the season on Sunday. Ajax, who are three points adrift, host Heracles Almelo on the last day. [PSV made to wait after Ajax claim victory. ESPNsoccernet. April 16 2008]
While this is good news, admittedly, the crown of the league is PSV to lose and I do not believe PSV would lose on that day, unless a miraculous disaster hit PSV. With only a game left and 3 points separating the two teams, the only way Ajax could win the Eredivisie is for PSV to lose to Vitesse Arnhem and Ajax to win against Heracles. That would cause both to have 69 points but due to superior goal difference, Ajax would come up on top.
Ajax on top… Now, that would be a real wet dream.
Hup Ajax Hup!
And finally, unfortunately, my favorite Ajax fan page, AjaxUSA has called it a quit.
We almost can’t believe we’re announcing this, but we are.
We’re calling it quits. Ajax USA is saying farewel. [Obituary for a fansite: AJAX USA (1995-2008). Accessed April 17 2008]
I would like to say thank you from the bottom of my heart for all the updates. Updates from AjaxUSA was one of those little things that helped me wade dthrough many of those lonely nights in Ann Arbor. It made my life a little bit easier to swallow. Life would have been different without Menno.
Because of that, AjaxUSA, you have my deepest gratitude.
And yes, always Ajax.
