Ajax edge Olympiacos late in friendly test
Ajax 1–0 Olympiacos. A late goal from Oliver Valaker Edvardsen in the 80th minute decided it (1) (2). Your team went toe-to-toe with the Dutch side in what was the toughest friendly of the summer so far, and the performance left a good impression despite the result (1). Míchel's Ajax had the edge when it counted, but Olympiacos did not look out of place.
Rosa and Carrizo could gain from Míchel's arrival at Ajax
Two names worth watching from the Ajax side: Lucas Rosa and Maher Carrizo. Dutch outlet VI noted both players may be winners from Míchel's arrival at the club (2). No direct Olympiacos angle here, but the opponents your team faced are going through their own tactical reshuffle, and Rosa and Carrizo appear to be central to it.
Fan reactions
The mood on Reddit is philosophical. Most fans acknowledged the result was secondary, with some pointing out that Ajax needed a moment of quality from Edvardsen to break through. The thread is here.
