Ajax 2-0 Telstar Player Ratings: Wout Weghorst Rated 9/10 as His Brace Sealed the First Victory for Ajax

The Johan Cryuff Stadium geared up to host the first match between one of the most successful sides in Dutch football, Ajax, and newly promoted Telstar. Ajax found a new man in the form of Heitings, taking charge from the dugout, as he was the fifth manager in the last five seasons for Ajax. He impressed in his first game for Ajax, and he will be tasked with the responsibility of leading his side to glory in the top division while also performing well in the UEFA Champions League this season. Telstar, on the other hand, got promoted recently and gave a good fight to a tough side like Ajax. Netherlands star Weghorst scored a brace in the first game, and that was enough to seal a victory for Ajax tonight against Telstar. The match ended with Ajax clinching a 2-0 victory over Telstar. Here are the Sportsdunia player ratings for Ajax vs Telstar.

Goalkeeper

Ronald Koeman - 5.5/10

Not an ideal start for Koeman as he conceded two goals in his debut match in the Eredivisie.

Defenders

Devon Koswal - 5.5/10

The Dutch centre back, jersey no. 21, found it difficult to adapt in a 3-5-2 setup, and the Ajax players exploited his weaknesses.

Donning jersey no. 4, Offerhaus did a good job of keeping a decent scoreline despite multiple attacks from Ajax players.

Danny Bakker- 6/10

Wearing jersey no. 6, the Telstar captain also had a good game tonight, but needs to work a lot on his discipline.

The right midfielder, jersey no. 11 was subbed off after failing to make an impact in the midfield

Jeff Hardeveld - 7/10

The Moroccan striker wearing jersey 7 was a disaster tonight for Telstar

Patrick Brouwer - 6/10

SUV - Malone - NA

Manager

Anthony Correia - 7/10

A life came full circle moment for Anthony Correia when the Telstar legend took his boyhood club back to the Dutch top division. But he suffered a defeat in his first game as his 3-5-2 didn't work well.

Sportsdunia player of the match goes to Wout Weghorst.
