Heitinga: 'A safe win'

Ajax only just managed to beat NEC 1-0 Sunday afternoon. "Ultimately, this is a safe win," said coach John Heitinga, who was pleased with how the match unfolded in the early stages. "I thought we played really well in the first 20 to 25 minutes. We kept the pressure fully on, and our imaginative players kept searching for the long crosses, but we didn't score."
