Amsterdam's "Ajax" coach Frank de Boer was not disappointed with his team's performance in the UEFA Champions League match against "Barcelona".
Yesterday, Luis Enrique's team defeated "Ajax" with a score of 2-0, but at the beginning of the match, the hosts dominated and fought fiercely against the Catalans.
"We showed that we can compete at the highest level," F. de Boer said at a press conference. "The players demonstrated resilience."
"I saw that my team tried to impose 'tiki-taka'. What I wanted to see from 'Ajax', I saw. Something similar to last season - pressure, fighting spirit, and a good display of football.
I think we deserved more than a 2-0 loss. There are not many teams that could say that after playing against 'Barcelona'," concluded the strategist.
