ToggleAjax’s quest to reclaim Eredivisie glory suffered a major blow on Wednesday night as they let victory slip through their fingers deep into stoppage time.

Despite being moments away from sealing a crucial win, a late free kick into the box was nodded home at the far post by Groningen, sparking wild celebrations from the home fans and despair for the visitors.
Just under a month ago, Ajax appeared firmly in control of their title destiny. On April 20, they travelled to face FC Utrecht with a commanding nine-point cushion at the top of the table. A victory on that day would have pushed their lead to 12 points, but what followed was a nightmare result. A shocking 4-0 defeat marked the beginning of Ajax’s collapse.
While Ajax faltered in Groningen, PSV took full advantage of the slip. The Eindhoven side registered a comfortable 4-1 win over Heracles, collecting all three points to jump ahead of their Amsterdam rivals in the standings.
