Ajax advanced to the last 16 in the Europa League thanks to a 2-0 win over Belgian side Anderlecht on Thursday.
Enjoying a commanding 3-0 lead from the first leg, Ajax's Miralem Sulejmani connected to a defense-splitting pass from Siem De Jong then fired past Anderlecht goalkeeper Silvio Proto in the 11th minute.
Sulemani doubled the lead five minutes later, finding his way past defender Jan Lecjaks to boot in a Mounir El Hamdaoui pass.
