Match Recap

Ajax looked set to grind out a goalless night in the Europa Conference League until Atalanta broke the deadlock late. T. Arokodare struck in the 87th minute and A. Ouazane added a second three minutes into stoppage time, turning a tight 0-0 into a 2-0 win for the visitors. The result flips both sides' early league fortunes: Atalanta move to 3 points and ninth place off their opening win, while Ajax sit winless and 28th after this defeat. Neither Arokodare nor Ouazane features among the competition's top ten scorers, a list still led by T. Parrott with 10 goals, but on this night it was Atalanta's late double that decided things, not the big names on the scoring charts. Ajax had held firm for over 85 minutes before the away side found the breakthrough, and then found it again almost immediately. Watch how Arokodare's 87th-minute strike unravels Ajax's resistance, and how Ouazane twists the knife in the final seconds of stoppage time to seal it.
