Dusan Tadic, the captain of Ajax, after the relegation of the Amsterdam team from the Champions League, said that they did not deserve to lose.
Benfica was better than Ajax, which, after Lisbon 2:2, celebrated at the “Johan Cruyff” stadium, with a goal by Darwin Nunez in the 77th minute.
“It is difficult to talk now and find the right words. I don’t think we deserved to lose. We knew they were dangerous in interruptions and counterattacks. We adjusted well to that, but then they scored from one free-kick “, said Tadic.
Tadic agreed that Ajax should have scored earlier.
“In the first half? Yes, we had a few chances in the second half. We were a better team. We prevented counterattacks, and they scored from a ‘dead’ situation. Can I blame someone? No, no I can not. We are a team and we have to stick together, whether we win or lose “, added Dusan.
