Ajax Wins 2-1 At Juventus To Reach Champions League Semi

MILAN (AP) — Ajax eliminated another one of the favorites from the Champions League as it won 2-1 at Juventus on Tuesday to reach the semifinals for the first time since 1997 and end Cristiano Ronaldo's hopes of a fourth straight title. Having already seen off Real Madrid in the previous round, Ajax showed no fear against Ronaldo and the Italian giant either, advancing 3-2 on aggregate after dominating much of the game. Even going behind to a goal from Ronaldo in the first half didn't faze Ajax's young players as Donny van de Beek leveled shortly after and 19-year-old captain Matthijs de Ligt scored the winner in the second half. Ajax will play either Manchester City or Tottenham in the semifinals. It is the first time since 2010 that Ronaldo failed to reach the last four, having won the competition the last three years in a row with Madrid.Read more on NewsOK.com
