Ajax won the Dutch Cup on Thursday after Siem de Jong and Luiz
Suarez scored two goals each for a 4-1 second-leg win over bitter
rival Feyenoord.
Ajax won 2-0 at home in the first leg with De Jong also
scoring both goals. The match was played over two legs with fans
for the traveling team banned from attending due to crowd trouble
fears.
Ajax went in front after just four minutes with Suarez
dispossessing Feyenoord midfielder Denny Landzaat before beating
goalkeeper Peter Mulder from 30 yards (meters).
Demy de Zeeuw's through ball set up De Jong, who again beat
Mulder with a low shot in the 60th. Jon Dahl Tomasson scored from a
rebound to give Feyenoord hope but De Jong added another goal in
the 74th before Suarez completed the rout.
