The match was a closely contested one, with Ajax taking the lead early on through a goal from Tolu Arokodare. The Nigerian striker made a kneeslide celebration after scoring his first official goal for the club, but unfortunately, it did not go as planned. Arokodare's goal was a crucial one, as it gave Ajax a 2-3 lead in the second half.
Ajax eventually ran out 2-4 winners, with Arokodare providing an assist for Davy Klaassen's goal. The win was a significant one for the Amsterdam club, who will now look to build on this momentum in the return leg of the play-offs.
Míchel, the trainer of Ajax, was pleased with Arokodare's performance, praising the striker's energy and work rate. The Spaniard also had kind words for Davy Klaassen and Steven Berghuis, who both contributed to the team's victory.
Ajax will now look to take the next step in the Conference League play-offs, with the return leg against FC Sion set to take place in the Johan Cruijff Arena.
