Ajax coach delighted with win over Feyenoord

Luis Suarez, who has been linked with several of Europe’s biggest clubs recently, scored a penalty goal in the game.

“The red card for Feyenoord midfielder Stefan Babovic was the turning point in the game. They were never able to seriously threaten us after that,” Jol was quoted as saying after the match.

“We could have scored even more goals if we showed some more clinical finishing. However, I am more than happy with the 5-1. We struggled 120 minutes in the KNVB Beker last Thursday, so this was the perfect response.

“We desperately needed this win to stay in the race for the league title. Twente and PSV aren’t spilling points, so this was an important win for us. It’s not easy to dominate the Eredivisie.”
