Last night, Dutch soccer side Ajax Amsterdam defeated Israeli side Maccabi Tel Aviv 3-0 in the Champions League.
Nothing so newsworthy there. After all, it is the soccer equivalent of Australia defeating Scotland in the cricket, England defeating the US in rugby, or the US defeating New Zealand in the basketball (I was going to use a NY Yankee analogy, but…)
What is kind of neat about the story is that although the game was played in Amsterdam, there were many Israeli flags being waved by fans. And I am talking about the Ajax fans.
If you are still confused, maybe this will clarify things for you.
Update: And Maccabi Tel Aviv players aren’t the only ones finding it hard to hit the target.
