Ajax Amsterdam crushed a Champions League hopeful, Heerenveen, 5-0, away from home, today.
How the hell Heerenveen is still close to the top when they make it a habit of losing 0-5 or 1-5 to Ajax, PSV and Twente, is beyond me (-- 14.08.2011 Ajax - Heerenveen 5-1, 20.08.2011 Heerenveen - Twente 1-5, 18.12.2011 Heerenveen - PSV 1-5, 18.03.2012 PSV - Heerenveen 5-1, 11.04.2012 Heerenveen - Ajax 0-5; see?)!
And Ajax's mission was made easier by two points because closest rivals AZ Alkmaar could not beat other strong rivals Twente Enschede. Final score, in Alkmaar, 2-2.
AZ led twice, through Jozy Altidore 's goals (3, 70), but Luuk de Jong (31) and Emir Bajrami (with just one minute left in regulation) came through for Twente.
But Twente only has 56 points now, while AZ gets to 58.
Ajax, on the other hand, now can brag with 61 points, and the best goal difference in the league.
Feyenoord was only able to achieve a goalless draw at Roda Kerkrade (which leaves them alone in fourth), while PSV lost again, this time at Waalwijk.
