Ajax captain Davy Klaassen addressed the team's performance following their 1-0 victory against AZ. While celebrating the win, Klaassen noted that the team struggled to play out from the back under pressure from AZ, particularly after the opening fifteen minutes.
Klaassen also commented on his recent tactical adjustment under manager Míchel Sánchez, where he has been deployed in a makeshift right-wing role.
