John Heitinga was speaking to ESPN after the 3-1 victory over FC Utrecht. He was pleased with the result, but felt Ajax made things unnecessarily difficult for themselves. "When you look at the first half, we should have scored a lot more goals. Play was very good at times, but you have to get the ball in the net", said the manager.

Heitinga was very pleased with how well Brian Brobbey and Steven Bergwijn worked together. "This pair pose a real danger. They have to run to keep up with each other, with or without the ball. Brobbey acts as the target man and Bergwijn gets involved", said a delighted Ajax manager. "What we were asking of them paid off. We really had the upper hand in the first half."

The Amsterdam manager later learned that PSV had drawn 3-3 against sc Heerenveen. As a result, Ajax are still in with a chance of finishing in second place in the Eredivisie on the final day of fixtures. "We just have to make sure we win ourselves, that's what I'm focusing on now", Heitinga made clear.
