Sir Alex Ferguson took the blame for the loss in the Europa League match against Amsterdam's "Ajax". Although the Dutch team defeated the English champions 2-1 on their own field, it was not enough to advance to the next stage, as the "Red Devils" celebrated a 2-0 victory in Amsterdam. "I have to take responsibility for the eleven I chose - there were too many young players in defense. I took a big risk," said Ferguson. The defensive quartet consisted of 20-year-old Phil Jones, 21-year-olds Rafael and Fabio, as well as 22-year-old Chris Smalling. The Scotsman also said: "Ajax knows how to keep the ball fantastically. We conceded a goal and gave confidence to our opponents, and in the second half we looked very bad." In the next stage of the Europa League, "Man Utd" will face Athletic Bilbao.
