Ajax players react after losing the UEFA Champions League semi-final second leg football match against Tottenham at the Johan Cruyff Arena, in Amsterdam.
“I’m very proud of this team and that they made it this far. We have
had a great run,” Ten Hag said after the Dutch club were beaten on away
goals on a dramatic night at the Johan Cruyff Arena.
Lucas Moura’s 96th-minute strike to complete his second-half
hat-trick made it 3-2 to Spurs on the night and 3-3 on aggregate as the
Premier League club progressed to the final against Liverpool. Ajax had been 2-0 up on the night, and 3-0 ahead in the tie, after
first-half goals by captain Matthijs de Ligt and Hakim Ziyech.
Having eliminated Real Madrid and Juventus in the previous two
rounds, they were on the brink of a first Champions League final
appearance for the club in 23 years and their players slumped to the
turf in despair when Lucas got the winner.
“We tried to shut the game down and we didn’t manage,” admitted Ten
Hag, with Ziyech also hitting the post late on for the home side.
“I told the players it is very hard to find the right words in a moment like this and that football is cruel.
“We have to endure the cruel side tonight but we have to go on.
“The Champions League final is so unique and the players all realise
that very well so you need time to get over it, but we have to get back
on track on Sunday.”
Ajax have already won the Dutch Cup this season and can still
complete a domestic double before their talented squad is inevitably
broken up at the end of the campaign.
They are neck and neck with PSV Eindhoven at the top of the Eredivisie heading into the final two matches.
