The stakes at play in Rotterdam are clear: the cup final on Sunday, 30 April at the De Kuip stadium. Heitinga's team had to play three away games in the run-up to the semi-final. Their cup adventure started out in Den Bosch, where Ajax were too good for FC Den Bosch, winning 2-0. In the round of 16, Ajax defeated FC Twente 1-0, while the Amsterdam side also saw victory at the start of March when they visited De Graafschap: 3-0.

The de Toekomst training ground was home to one tough, final training session. A thorough warm-up, passing and kicking exercises and various set drills featured in the final session in readiness for Wednesday. The team were dotting the i's and crossing the t's ready for the Rotterdam clash.

Our in-house photographer was there at the final training session and took some magnificent shots.
