Some Ajax "payback" for England - a 3-1 win for The Netherlands!! - 0762 - 06-06-2019

In what turned out to be a deserved win for Virgil Van Dijk and his team mates (De Pay should've scored 3 or goals tonight!!), England finally "humbled" in ET by a far more skilful team in front of their riotous fans (can English fans never behave and stop creating the usual negative news headlines!!??). And a bit of "payback" by the many Ajax players who were unluckily halted by Spurs in that dramatic CL semi-final and after all the usual English "drum beating" by various media people/pundits!! Well done Holland and lets see if you can win it with this up n coming young side!!

England always come undone to a team with any sort of ability. They bored their way to the WC semis with the easiest draw I've ever seen and got beat by a tired, yet far superior football team.
Holland aren't the greatest up front but are so much better on the ball.

IMO Holland's missing "piece of the jigsaw" is that prolific CF who has that ability to "sniff out" and score goals, a pen box striker! I think that addition would push them on to being a truly world class team again!!
