JAKARTA - Borussia Dortmund head coach Marco Rose praised the Ajax game they will face at the Johan Cruijff Arena, Amsterdam, in the Champions League Group C match on Wednesday morning. But, he didn't want his team to go home empty-handed.
"They are a lot of fun to watch and we know what we are getting into, a very organized machine," Rose told Dortmund's official website, quoted by Antara.
"This will be a big challenge for us. We are happy to have to face it because we want to take something from it. We want to challenge Ajax," he added.

Dortmund has the capital as the only German team that has ever won a visit to the Johan Cruijff Arena in a European match.
According to Rose, his players must perform as carefully as possible in taking advantage of small gaps in the Ajax backline, which applies a high tight guard.
"We may only have a short time with the ball, but we have to use it to be in the right position," he said.
That statement was echoed by attacking midfielder Julian Brandt who insisted he and his teammates must give their 100 percent if they are to get anything out of Ajax.

"We need 100 percent of our ability to perform well and maybe decide things in our own hands," he said.
Dortmund currently have a full six points but were forced to occupy second place in Group C due to a loss in goal productivity to Ajax at the top.
