JAKARTA - AZ Alkmaar versus Ajax Amsterdam in the semifinals of the Dutch Cup on Friday, March 4, western Indonesia time, ended as predicted. Ajax, who visited the AFAS Stadium, won with a score of 2-0.

Steven Berghuis scored two Ajax goals in the 11th minute and Davy Klaassen in the 89th minute. The champion is entitled to a ticket to the final.

This is Ajax's 27th final in the Dutch Cup. In the final, Erik ten Hag's troops will meet their arch-rival PSV Eindhoven on April 17.

Ten Hag has a mission in this final. He wants to score a hat-trick of Dutch Cup titles as Ajax boss.

However, it is believed that this mission will not be easily realized. PSV is not a team that can be easily beaten.

Meanwhile, Ajax's victory over AZ was colored by a number of interesting facts. One of them is the fact that Ajax became the fifth team to qualify for the final without conceding a single goal throughout the tournament.

Dusan Tadic and his friends equaled Roda JC (2000), NEC (1973), VOC (1909) and Haarlem (1902) records.
