00:00:30New hope, new aspirations, same drama.

00:00:34It is a pleasure to welcome everyone back to a new season.

00:00:38Everything building now towards the imminent kick-off.

00:00:41Ajax against PSV.

00:00:43I'm Peter Drury, and seated in the experts' hot seat is our man, Jim Begley.

00:00:48Thanks for that, Peter, and may I say a big hello to everyone.

00:00:52Ajax against PSV.

00:01:36Ajax have elected to go 4-3-3.

00:01:39Well, it's a system that promotes width, Peter.

00:01:42The wide men can stretch the fences and just create that running room for others.

00:02:15I'll see you next time.

00:02:25So it's away we go then

00:02:28TSV and Ajax

00:02:30Dutch football doesn't get too much bigger than this

00:02:32It is a fabulous atmosphere

00:02:43Looking to break out here

00:02:49Now it's Funtzela

00:02:53Good interception

00:02:57Over to the left

00:03:01Funtzela

00:03:03And he's searching through

00:03:06The further he went the more attention he attracted

00:03:09There was just way too much pressure for him to get the shot away

00:03:20Plays it out to the wing

00:03:23It's early but the game hasn't yet sparked into life

00:03:27Up to meet it

00:03:28This could fall anywhere

00:03:37Full-blooded challenge and it had to be

00:03:43Say it

00:03:44And it's Funtzela

00:03:49Ajax so far providing no real test at all for the goalkeeper

00:03:58Cuts it out

00:04:03And he's shown him a clean pair of heels

00:04:05Is it in?

00:04:08That was venomous

00:04:09Venomous

00:04:25Shona

00:04:27Oh he's broken through

00:04:29Shoots

00:04:31Good stop

00:04:32That wasn't easy

00:04:33Well as Tesco Peter

00:04:34The keeper has just received an A plus grade

00:04:59Nice to get it forward quickly

00:05:02Huntzela

00:05:03Huntzela

00:05:04Steaming forward

00:05:05Tushes it out wide

00:05:07Now it's Funtzela

00:05:12He's had a goal

00:05:17Huntzela

00:05:19Forward it goes

00:05:20You could see he was eager to get a shot away

00:05:22But there was too much flesh and bone in his path

00:05:31And that's a throw

00:05:38He's left his man

00:05:41Turns and goes back

00:05:43Can he finish?

00:05:46No attempt

00:05:47Just the wrong outcome

00:05:50Yeah he may have snatched it down a bit

00:05:52Even though it was quite close

00:06:05Looking to get within range

00:06:07Shakes the chutes

00:06:09Goal!

00:06:10PSV!

00:06:13First blood drawn

00:06:19And as soon as they made that error in midfield

00:06:21They didn't have time to react before the ball hit the net

00:06:23Very much a lesson learned

00:06:42Big occasion

00:06:44Big goal

00:06:45Crucial lead

00:06:46Well that's their campaign

00:06:48Well surely up and running now

00:06:50Going through

00:06:51Chance

00:06:54Hits one

00:06:55All the balls come loose

00:06:59Looking for support

00:07:02He's had a chance

00:07:04He's had a chance

00:07:05Dispatch clinically

00:07:08Ajax are level

00:07:14Lovely goal

00:07:16Perfect poise to set himself for the strike

00:07:27Anders

00:07:28To be close

00:07:29To be close

00:07:36To be close

00:07:38Into charge

00:07:55And that has added a whole new complexion to the game

00:07:58I think the coach will really be annoyed with that

00:08:01The players were still thinking about their goal

00:08:03They just got caught napping

00:08:06It's an incident to the channel

00:08:09And he's onside

00:08:13It's it

00:08:15And he's there to make a great save

00:08:17Well you can't ask for much more than that

00:08:19A difficult moment he simply had to deal with

00:08:40Oh surely

00:08:46There's the end of the first half

00:08:47Genuinely interesting game here

00:08:50Very very watchable

00:08:51Two goals

00:08:52One each

00:08:54Some first half thoughts

00:08:55Well we thought this would be close Peter

00:08:58And it's proving us right so far

00:09:00They're well matched

00:09:01And it presents a fascinating battle of wits to see

00:09:04Who will emerge on top or otherwise

00:09:08That's a really interesting game

00:09:09And they head in at half time

00:09:11At 1-1

00:09:49PSV

00:09:50Get the ball rolling for the second period

00:09:54He's gone away

00:10:03Gets on the end of it

00:10:07He's gone away with one there

00:10:10That's just front foot enforcement

00:10:12Pressure leads to mistake

00:10:14Leads to chance

00:10:17They're committing a lot of men forward

00:10:19At the start of the second half

00:10:20They know that this is an important time for them

00:10:25He's left his man

00:10:26He's made sure that that won't get through

00:10:31Could move up a gear here

00:10:32He's gone away

00:10:34Chipped through

00:10:35Surely he hasn't popped

00:10:39That's a half decent try

00:10:42A more than decent attempt Peter

00:10:45Oh he really wanted that

00:10:48Yeah he's been at the centre of a lot of things

00:10:50Hasn't he

00:10:51Mostly good

00:10:52I should add

00:10:56Schörner

00:10:59Out to the left it goes

00:11:04Now it's Funtzala

00:11:07Out wide to the right

00:11:08Brakes on here

00:11:09Going through

00:11:12Can he score

00:11:15Extraordinary

00:11:16PSV

00:11:17No they can rely on the counter

00:11:19And they've just expressed a warning

00:11:28Schörner

00:11:29Someone looks like he's in need of protection here

00:11:32Yeah Peter

00:11:32And it looks like this defence

00:11:34Will go tooth and nail

00:11:35To prevent him from

00:11:36From getting another

00:11:44Remains 1-1

00:11:45With about a quarter of the game to play

00:11:46Plays it out to the wing

00:11:48Looks like a good ball through

00:11:50Can he put it away

00:11:53Goal

00:11:54PSV

00:11:56And they get themselves in front

00:12:03Just so calm under pressure

00:12:06Demonstrated great strength there

00:12:08I mean he really had to hold his man off

00:12:10And just create enough room for him

00:12:11To be able to get the shot away

00:12:12And I think it's just top top play

00:12:17PSV

00:12:18Go into the lead

00:12:25Van Ginkel

00:12:28Now the pass

00:12:29Big chance

00:12:31And in it goes

00:12:34Two up

00:12:36And threatening to pull clear

00:12:42Really outwitted

00:12:43One on one

00:12:44Once more

00:12:45He gets the better of the keeper

00:12:47Oh that's excellent composure

00:12:49Because the keeper

00:12:50Put as much pressure on

00:12:51As he could

00:12:51By not committing sooner

00:12:55He's made it three

00:12:56Quite today at the office for him

00:12:58This is one of the best performances

00:13:00I've seen in a while

00:13:01He's practically taken on this team

00:13:03Single-handedly

00:13:04And they don't know how to stop him

00:13:22PSV

00:13:22Take a two goal lead

00:13:24And are looking good for the win

00:13:26Listen it's up to them now

00:13:27How they think about it from here

00:13:29Because for me it's crying out

00:13:31For them to force the issue

00:13:36Oh well intercepted

00:13:38Really alerts the danger

00:13:39Looking to break out here

00:13:42Alls out on the left

00:13:43Now

00:13:47And it's Shirley

00:13:58Closing in on the last quarter of an hour

00:14:13Passes it through

00:14:18That's it

00:14:20They are rampant

00:14:23And they are cruising away

00:14:31Straight header

00:14:32Made it look easy

00:14:33Well as contact goes

00:14:35That was tremendous

00:14:35And it helped him to direct it

00:14:37Exactly where he wanted

00:14:38Into that net

00:14:39I think when it comes to the aerial department

00:14:41This fella is definitely no slouch

00:14:45Four in the game

00:14:47He is the man

00:14:51PSV grab a three goal lead

00:14:53It's just too easy

00:15:00So what now

00:15:02Very little time left

00:15:03In this opening fixture

00:15:04Looks as though it's going to end this way

00:15:09Aimed low and direct

00:15:14Arias

00:15:15Chates to get it forward quickly

00:15:17Has a swing at it

00:15:19No

00:15:20Not quite

00:15:35Missed some activity

00:15:36Down on the touchline

00:15:37It seems there's going to be a change

00:15:45Schörner

00:15:46Sticks in a foot

00:15:47To win it back

00:15:47It's come loose

00:15:49Can he finish?

00:15:53And another time

00:15:55And oh

00:16:00Schörner

00:16:02And the counter is on

00:16:07Van Ginkiel

00:16:11And there goes the final whistle

00:16:13Well it has been a hugely disappointing start here

00:16:16And the critics will be sharpening their knives

00:16:19The boss has some questions to answer

00:16:21Your final thoughts Jim?

00:16:23Well what a disappointing way to start a new campaign

00:16:25All that pre-season graft

00:16:27In building up to this

00:16:28And the points slip away

00:16:30Game number two will take on

00:16:32An added importance now

00:16:34Well thanks for your company Jim

00:16:36And a very good day to you

00:16:44Online

00:16:45We're going to get back to this

00:16:53We're going to pass

00:17:02And this is always Elsie

00:19:04The warmest of welcomes to all of you around the globe.

00:19:08We're just about ready to get going.

00:19:09The players will be with us very shortly.

00:19:13And here we have Den Haag against Ajax.

00:19:16I'm Peter Drury and seated in the experts hot seat is our man Jim Beglin.

00:19:21Cheers, Peter.

00:19:22It's a privilege to be here.

00:19:24It really is.

00:19:26It really is.

00:19:52It's hard to be here.

00:19:57We can't wait.

00:20:00We can't wait.

00:20:08We can't wait.

00:20:13We can't wait.

00:20:16We can't wait.

00:20:19It's a privilege to be here.

00:21:51And joining me here, our experts, Jim Beglin.

00:21:54Cheers, Peter.

00:21:55It's a privilege to be here.

00:21:57It really is.

00:21:58Ajax against PSV.

00:22:42Ajax shape up in a 4-3-3.

00:22:45Well, in this formation, the wide players can be the most attacking and sometimes a pair

00:22:50of extra fullbacks.

00:23:20It's a privilege to be here.

00:23:32And we're underway.

00:23:36PSV and Ajax.

00:23:38Dutch football doesn't get too much bigger than this.

00:23:40It is a...

00:23:41goes for goal...

00:24:07forward it goes.

00:24:11Luque de Jong

00:24:16Twishes it out wide

00:24:24Nicely controlled

00:24:30And it's Huntelaar

00:24:34Going through, Huntelaar

00:24:38Huntelaar, he's still going

00:24:40And he's rounded it off in style

00:24:48Well none of us were exactly sure how that was going to end up then

00:24:51But I'm delighted to see such a happy ending after such a splendid dribbling run

00:24:55I mean he really did fool that defence into wondering what he was going to do next

00:25:34Ajax, making an early change here

00:25:42Ajax give themselves the perfect start

00:25:44Can they build on it?

00:25:46Well that's their campaign well and truly up and running now

00:25:51Just brushed off the ball there

00:26:10And it's been taken straight back

00:26:12Breaks on here

00:26:15Huntelaar into opposition territory

00:26:17Looking to force, has a hit

00:26:22And Ginkle plays it forward

00:26:26Over to the left

00:26:29He's left his man

00:26:38And it's Huntelaar

00:26:43Ajax scoring in the first 10 minutes

00:26:46To give them a 1-0 lead

00:26:49It's a good stubborn defending there

00:26:54Sayek

00:27:01Keepers got good distance on that

00:27:06Look to young

00:27:07Stuck out a leg for a good challenge

00:27:10That's a foul

00:27:11Simple decision for the referee

00:27:37Oh, good interception

00:27:41He's gone away

00:27:42Still going

00:27:43Where to next?

00:27:45Going for goal

00:27:47He's missed another one

00:27:48Ajax really are in the ascendancy here

00:27:51And they know they have to register while that's the case

00:28:16So what now?

00:28:17Oh, good

00:28:24Ajax are in control here on the brink of half time

00:28:28So what now?

00:28:33Tries to get it forward quickly, looking to break out here.

00:28:42Lovely bit of skill.

00:28:45He's had a shot!

00:28:47Good stop, that wasn't easy.

00:28:50Well, that was high-class goalkeeping there to back up his high-class wage.

00:29:04We've played it short.

00:29:07Aimed long and direct.

00:29:09Battles to win it back.

00:29:18Van Ginkel.

00:29:22And it's Luc de Jong.

00:29:27There is the half-time whistle.

00:29:28So there you have it, a close-fought half of football.

00:29:31But Van Gogh has still had its moments, but ultimately produced just one goal.

00:29:35A more than decent game up to now.

00:29:39Well, they showed glimpses of some wonderful football to go in with the lead at half-time,

00:29:42and that's definitely pleased the fans.

00:29:44I think they'll be looking to keep this intensity up now in the second half.

00:29:48Ajax come in, having established that lead, a game where the narrative is,

00:29:53at least in terms of the scoreline, so far so good.

00:30:20And the second half gets on the way.

00:30:24And the second half gets on the way, Ajax going well here.

00:30:26And they're in a good position to kick on and add to their lead.

00:30:29They don't have to over-commit, but they can place more emphasis on stretching their advantage

00:30:34without necessarily neglecting things defensively.

00:30:38Chance to break.

00:30:40He's out on the left.

00:30:41Now, he's left his man.

00:30:47A glorious footwork.

00:30:51Sayak.

00:30:54It's loose.

00:30:55Who's getting there?

00:30:57Clears it out of harm's way.

00:31:00Going through.

00:31:01Great run this.

00:31:02He's covered quite a distance.

00:31:10It was all about the quality of the delivery, and they come away with nothing.

00:31:20Luke de Jong.

00:31:22He's away.

00:31:23Luke de Jong!

00:31:26Oh, nearly, nearly.

00:31:41It's pretty clear that he's being singled out.

00:31:44Yeah, and now that he's scored, this defence is on high alert whenever he goes anywhere near the ball.

00:31:52Sayak.

00:31:54Now it's Huntelaar.

00:31:56He's left his man.

00:31:59Huntelaar.

00:32:00Can he finish?

00:32:01Big relief.

00:32:02It just needed better contact.

00:32:04Ajax just served up a reminder of how good they can be on the break.

00:32:08Their method is clear.

00:32:10Oh, he really wanted that.

00:32:12Huntelaar very nearly making something happen there.

00:32:16You can't keep a good man down.

00:32:29And he's there to cut it out.

00:32:35Arias.

00:32:39Plays it out to the flank.

00:32:45Ajax still one up.

00:32:52Now it's Schoena.

00:32:53He's gone away.

00:33:02And it's Luke de Jong.

00:33:04Gets it back.

00:33:08Huntelaar.

00:33:22Huntelaar.

00:33:31That's a poor kick by the keeper.

00:33:33He's just given it straight back.

00:33:35Now it's Huntelaar.

00:33:36Huntelaar.

00:33:42The shot's on.

00:33:46This is good ball retention.

00:33:48And it should be enough from here.

00:33:50But they want to double their advantage.

00:33:57Now it's Huntelaar.

00:33:59He could be in here.

00:34:02Huntelaar.

00:34:03Has a puck.

00:34:05Top save.

00:34:07That shot was travelling.

00:34:10There's a real appetite from them to finally put this game to bed.

00:34:14But will they?

00:34:23Ajax need to hold on for a few more moments.

00:34:29Well, it remains to be seen whether they can come up with that little bit of class to rescue this

00:34:33situation.

00:34:34And it needs to be any time now, really.

00:34:43It's one.

00:34:47Schörner goes looking.

00:34:50And that is it.

00:34:51The referee has seen enough.

00:34:53Day one.

00:34:54Job done.

00:34:55The perfect start they craved.

00:34:57So what do you take away from it all, Jim?

00:34:59Well, of course, the result was the opening day priority.

00:35:02And it was achieved with real front foot positivity.

00:35:08Thanks to Jim alongside me.

00:35:10And as the fans make their way home, so must we.

00:35:12Good evening to you.

00:35:37I'm glad you were so proud of you.

00:35:40Yes.

00:36:56The teams then, Den Haag against Ajax.

00:37:00I'm Peter Turi and it's my chance to say that it is an absolute delight to have Jim Beglin beside

00:37:06you.

00:37:06Thanks, Peter. It's a pleasure and a privilege for me to be here.

00:37:22And there's the whistle.

00:37:26Den Haag had to settle for a point on opening day.

00:37:29Not ideal, but better than nothing.

00:37:36Huntelaar.

00:37:52Huntelaar.

00:37:57And it's Immers.

00:38:04Tushes it out wide.

00:38:06Tushes it out wide.

00:38:07Going through.

00:38:11Gets into some space.

00:38:13He's left his man.

00:38:16Looking for a decent ball in.

00:38:19Who's ball?

00:38:20Who's going to get there?

00:38:22Forward it goes.

00:38:27More than happy to take the muscular approach.

00:38:30Looking to break out here.

00:38:36He'll have a dent.

00:38:37Saved only by poor finishing.

00:38:40Den Haag were again presented with an opportunity to break and look very, very threatened.

00:38:55Sayek.

00:39:00Huntelaar.

00:39:07Okay, put it away.

00:39:09Goal!

00:39:11Ajax!

00:39:16Oh, beautifully dispatched.

00:39:18There was no reaching that.

00:39:20Well, I think two keepers would have had a hard time keeping that one out.

00:39:24Never mind one.

00:39:25There was real venom in the strike and clear composure from the placement.

00:39:31Goal!

00:39:35Goal!

00:39:38Goal!

00:39:39Goal!

00:39:41Goal!

00:39:42Goal!

00:39:43Goal!

00:39:45Goal!

00:39:47Goal!

00:39:50Goal!

00:39:52Goal!

00:39:53Goal!

00:39:54Goal!

00:39:55Goal!

00:39:55Ajax hit themselves into the lead.

00:39:57I'll just listen to the reaction.

00:39:59I think you can hear the approval from the support all around the stadium.

00:40:04Goal!

00:40:05Goal!

00:40:06Goal!

00:40:07Goal!

00:40:08Goal!

00:40:14Goal!

00:40:35Goal!

00:40:39Goal!

00:40:40Goal!

00:40:43Goal!

00:40:44Goal!

00:40:52The only goal to give them a 1-0 lead

00:40:59Nice to get it forward quickly

00:41:02Huntelaar puts his foot on the gas

00:41:04Oh he's broken through

00:41:05Could go all the way here

00:41:07Can he finish?

00:41:10Superb from Huntelaar

00:41:12All too easy

00:41:14They are in danger of disappearing out of sight

00:41:23That's always a great sight you know on a football pitch

00:41:26Nimble footage, show great balance

00:41:27And a really cool head to finish

00:41:29And that kind of dribbling is really smart

00:42:06Ajax have a couple of goals without reply

00:42:09It's 2-0

00:42:10Well that second goal has given them so much more command and confidence now

00:42:15And they should be able to take it on from here

00:42:17And either add to their lead or close it out

00:42:20Surely they'll manage one or the other

00:42:23Dashing forward at pace

00:42:32Well he was thinking about headlines I'm sure

00:42:35But he ought to focus more on on braking lines

00:42:40Gets it back

00:42:42And it's Huntelaar

00:42:44Chance to break

00:42:53And we've reached halftime

00:42:55Any opinion you'd like to express on the first half?

00:42:57Well it's looking pretty straightforward Peter

00:43:00They've got themselves into a very good position

00:43:02So why dither from here

00:43:04When they can repeat their first half success

00:43:06With a another show of strength

00:43:09Ajax

00:43:10Sitting pretty here at halftime

00:43:122-0 up

00:43:42Perché

00:43:42See

00:43:43Chasing

00:43:43and the action is back on the way

00:43:54all is over the line

00:44:03he's left his man

00:44:04oh sweet feet

00:44:09big chance here

00:44:12great save real class

00:44:14well as tesco peter the keeper

00:44:16he's just received an a plus grade

00:44:33gets up to head it

00:44:36good try the outcome could so easily

00:44:39have been different

00:44:41yeah he may have snatched at that a bit

00:44:43even though it was quite close

00:44:47they're committing a lot of men forward at the start of the second half

00:44:50they know that this is an important time for them now

00:45:06he is not one readily to admit defeat don't be surprised if he tries that again

00:45:17puntalad two goals to his name already

00:45:22trout calling for him to shoot

00:45:25it's one

00:45:26and more and more and more

00:45:30and the lead is extended still further

00:45:37oh look it's always great to see a solo effort with a goal

00:45:40it's the ideal combination of pace and control

00:45:46three without reply

00:45:48this is becoming a stroll

00:45:59now it's immers

00:46:00now wide to the right

00:46:09aim blow and direct

00:46:11and the counter is on

00:46:13now it's funcela

00:46:15yes he is

00:46:16offside

00:46:18he may have been caught offside

00:46:20but

00:46:20well peter from experience

00:46:22defenders

00:46:23i can tell you

00:46:24hate those runs in behind

00:46:34it was

00:46:38and he's away

00:46:39and that's off target

00:46:43well they're being made to force the issue

00:46:45but they need to be patient and a little more composed

00:47:03but it's a lot

00:47:04it's now the subject of some adhesive marking

00:47:07yeah and now that he scored

00:47:09this defense is on high alert whenever he goes anywhere near the ball

00:47:26plays it out to the flank

00:47:29that's one way of trying to make things happen

00:47:31there's a few who could follow that example

00:47:37and it's Huntelaar

00:47:39looking to force his way through

00:47:42good run

00:47:43ultimately thwarted by an astute piece of defending

00:47:46the crowd appreciates good football all round there

00:47:51he's made sure that that won't get through

00:47:53now it's Huntelaar

00:47:55he's got away

00:47:57and the shots

00:47:58he has done it

00:48:02over the hills and far away

00:48:04no catching them now

00:48:11showed real composure then

00:48:13i mean how often do you see a player do everything right

00:48:15until he gets into the box

00:48:17only to completely kind of fluff the finish

00:48:19not him

00:48:22he's made it three

00:48:23quite today at the office for him

00:48:25oh he's been unstoppable in this match

00:48:27every single time he's been in possession

00:48:29he's looked a threat

00:48:43Ajax totally rampant here

00:48:52it was

00:48:57lovely little display of skill that is

00:49:01it's a very good battle there

00:49:03terrific to watch

00:49:09chance

00:49:10and Huntelaar

00:49:14a chance to play it in

00:49:16Zayac

00:49:20it's a fabulous

00:49:22he's gone for it

00:49:23superb from Huntelaar

00:49:26and again

00:49:28they pile on the misery

00:49:31well i think we've gone past humiliation now

00:49:34this could be doing some real psychological damage

00:49:38four in the game

00:49:40he is the man

00:49:45Ajax tear their opponents apart once again

00:49:48they are utterly ruthless

00:49:52he's one on one

00:49:54going for goal

00:49:55and in it goes

00:49:59just another one to add to what has already been

00:50:02an incredible haul

00:50:07it's part of the game peter

00:50:09it has to get ruthless

00:50:10sympathy

00:50:11just doesn't play a part

00:50:21Den Haag

00:50:22look as though they're about to make a change

00:50:24well you have to feel a little for the player

00:50:26have been taken off here

00:50:27i think he's been made the scapegoat after that

00:50:29but i guess something had to be done

00:50:31i suppose it did need a little change

00:50:37Immers

00:50:43say

00:50:47the final whistle

00:50:50demolition

00:50:50destruction

00:50:52annihilation

00:50:52they simply ran away with it

00:50:54how do you look back on the game then Jim

00:50:56yeah

00:50:56they had a game plan

00:50:58which was

00:50:58about hammering away

00:51:00in central positions

00:51:01and it paid off

00:51:02for me

00:51:03they were persistent

00:51:04and ruthless

00:51:06just remains for me

00:51:07to thank Jim Beglin

00:51:08for joining us

00:51:09and to wish you

00:51:10a very good day

00:51:22thanks

00:51:23for coming

00:51:23very much

00:51:24to us

00:51:24to watch

00:51:25what how do you have a good idea

00:51:25we look back to here

00:51:26and we at this point

00:51:29over and over

00:51:38T-

00:51:39N

00:51:42you

00:51:43you

00:53:14Thanks for that, Peter.

00:53:15And may I say a big hello to everyone.

00:58:04AIMED LONG AND DIRECT

00:58:11Schörner gets it back, now it's Kuntala, looking to break out here, Kuntala

00:58:21Gets it upfield, and there's the whistle for half-time, so another team has broken through, but certainly not for

00:58:29the want of trying, it's been an interesting game up to now, but still goals

00:58:36Had a grossing half, but we're still where we started, 0-0

00:59:01I can't get it, yes, I'll get it, Plutarch

00:59:03I could have a good time, this is what we're doing today

00:59:03I can get it, no, I'll get it

00:59:05I can get it, but it's amazing

00:59:05I've got too many of the fans to find out there

00:59:06I can't wait for you

00:59:09I can't wait for you

00:59:11I can't wait for you

00:59:43And we're underway again.

00:59:46Tight old game so far.

00:59:49Can that change now?

00:59:57Bröniggen and Anadjö came in for a bit of flack after their previous result.

01:00:01I think it was quite fair, the criticism he received.

01:00:05He was blind to an obvious problem.

01:00:06And he was far too slow in reacting to it.

01:00:09He was never going to get away with that.

01:00:12And he's made certain that won't get through.

01:00:14Chance to break.

01:00:19Good running with the ball.

01:00:20Can they build on it?

01:00:23Surely.

01:00:25Going for goal!

01:00:27They've scored!

01:00:29And some players are just capable of grabbing a game by the scruff of the neck.

01:00:34And his immense talent may just have done exactly that and injected the belief that they can retain their lead

01:00:39this time round.

01:00:45Ajax are really pouncing on any straight passes in midfield.

01:00:48We're talking seconds from interception to the back of the net.

01:00:51It's counter-attacking heaven.

01:00:58Deadlock broken.

01:01:00It's 1-0.

01:01:01Oh, half-time has been a blessing for this team.

01:01:04You know, what a great start to the second half.

01:01:11He's left his man.

01:01:18He's on the back foot.

01:01:21And it's Huntelaar.

01:01:23Oh, super tackle.

01:01:24They were outnumbered and under the cosh.

01:01:27That had to be spot on and it was.

01:01:34Catch it out.

01:01:39This defense is weary about opposition pace.

01:01:42So they're just not getting too tight.

01:01:43Yeah, they know that if they step up.

01:01:46He ran himself into trouble there.

01:01:47Free kick given away.

01:02:05Groningen showing a little more urgency now.

01:02:08And to be honest, Peter, this is what's required.

01:02:11Well, the hit and hope is just about the sum of it, isn't it, Jim?

01:02:16Well, there's no two ways about it.

01:02:18This is what they have to do.

01:02:23Could move up a gear here.

01:02:25Driving on now.

01:02:27What can they conjure from here?

01:02:28Going through.

01:02:31Oh, the ball's come loose.

01:02:33And the finish.

01:02:35Saved only by poor finishing.

01:02:37Yeah, they got away with it.

01:02:39But that was a defensive letdown to see him march through like that.

01:02:51All the directed kick from the keeper.

01:02:53He's given it away.

01:02:59He's made sure that that won't get through.

01:03:03Puntala.

01:03:11Gets his foot in there.

01:03:15The ball's come loose and the chase is off.

01:03:18He's had a shot.

01:03:20It's in.

01:03:21And with the match slipping away, they have hauled themselves off the canvas.

01:03:31And that is about as cool as they come.

01:03:34He picked his spot expertly.

01:03:36Now, that's what I call finishing.

01:03:39Right in the corner.

01:03:40He knew instinctively who was where and didn't need to waste any time weighing things up.

01:03:44That's a cracking goal.

01:03:53Well, that goal just serves to give them the momentum and psychological edge now at this stage.

01:03:59But for me, they've got to chase a winner.

01:04:04He's got away.

01:04:06Great run this.

01:04:07He's covered quite a distance.

01:04:09Battles to win it back.

01:04:13Forward it goes.

01:04:16Groningen merit full marks for their attitude and application in trying to win this.

01:04:21It means an awful lot of you.

01:04:23Hits one.

01:04:25It's come back out.

01:04:28Gets good distance on it.

01:04:31And it's been taken straight back.

01:04:36Now the counter.

01:04:41Great strength.

01:04:42Too strong for his opponent.

01:04:43And it's Huntelaar.

01:04:48Ajax being made to look sloppy in possession here.

01:04:52Huntelaar.

01:04:53And he scores!

01:04:55Close, but time for no more.

01:04:58The whistle has gone.

01:04:59So it's ended in a draw.

01:05:01Draft and graft and everything apart from a winning goal that never came.

01:05:05An intriguing contest and a result which at least partly satisfies all.

01:05:10Well, after all of that, Jim, what are you thinking?

01:05:13Well, a decent draw, Peter, with a good mix of action and plenty of talking points.

01:05:18And it ended with the right result, in my opinion.

01:05:22So many thanks to Jim Beglin.

01:05:24That's all we have time for.

01:05:25Good evening to you.
