Kenneth Taylor reflected on his stunning goal during Ajax's match against Almere City FC in front of ESPN's cameras. "When the long ball came, I was already looking at Nordin (Bakker, ed.) and noticed he was stepping slightly off his line. The ball dropped perfectly in between, and I don’t think I could’ve done much else with it," said Taylor.

Taylor started the game against Almere City FC as a left winger. "The coach knows that I prefer to play as a number eight, but I’m more than happy to play on the left wing when needed," said the Ajax midfielder with a big smile.

The goalscorer was also asked about Francesco Farioli’s rotation policy. "We’ve played a lot of matches this season, especially since we had to qualify for European football. The coach takes that into account, and as a group, we also believe this is the best approach," Taylor concluded.
