Senior Squad
I am pretty bored, so i thought why not type up a little adventure i'd just been a part of with my Ajax squad.
Well to be honest i hate typing a lot, so i'll keep it brief.
In the 2029/30 season with Ajax i was 12 points behind the leader PSV in 4th spot with about 10 games remaining, i managed to scrape it back to 6 points with 1 game in hand.
My game in hand was against Feyenoord away who were sitting 15th at the time, i thought i probably would of won to sit 3 points behind PSV with 2 games to go. Unfortunately i lost 3-1 to remain 6 points behind.
Little did i realise that my next match was actually against PSV at home, so i pretty much discovered that i had blown a terrific chance to pull level if i had of beaten Feyenoord.
In an absorbing match i came away victorious from the PSV match 2-0 with 10 men. Going into the last game i still needed a miracle, PSV were away to Dordrecht who are no easy-beats sitting 4th at the time and i was at home to Vitesse, who were dead last and already relegated.
Not to mention PSV had a considerably better goal difference than me so i need PSV to at least draw or lose and Ajax to win to secure the title.
I took the lead 1-0 in the first half as did PSV, not looking good, but then again Dordrecht had just equalised against PSV, and i thought the title was in my grasp until an unlikely equaliser came from Vitesse to make it 1-1 at Full time.
I was pretty much unhappy about it. Imagine drawing to a team thats already relegated when the title is on the line.
Anyone got some terrific stories like mine?
Well i thought it was pretty entertaining at the time when i was drawing closer and closer to PSV who were dropping points all over the shop. Just to fall short at the last hurdle to a team thats relegated just annoys me. Take nothing away from Vitesse, they probably deserved it anyway.
