I’ve often seen people talk about how Ajax reached the UCL semis in the 18/19 season and had a great season,but no one talks about Villarreal , they also had a great run to the UCL semi finals in 21/22 , teams like lyon also reached the semi finals in 19/20 ,yet no one talks about these teams.what was so great about Ajax’s run that season ?
Their play style .team filled up with talents , young talents and the way they defeated their opposition .they had it difficult from the start but they had strong mentality playing the likes of bayern defeated juventus defending champions real madrid(4-1 trashing in their OWN stadium) and just missing it out due to a comeback from lucas moura going out with a heart break .All in all that season was memorable and also one small factor adding to that was it war probably the best ucl season ever excluding the final.messi carryjob for barcelona liverpool comeback ajax trashing real spurs vs city drama spurs comeback against ajax makes people remeber that side even more
