Erik ten Hag grateful for late equaliser as Ajax draw at AZ Alkmaar 8 May 2022
-
Thankfully for Ten Hag's men, and no doubt to the chagrin of title-race rivals PSV Eindhoven, Edson Alvarez produced a leveller in the 86th minute and Ajax emerged with a precious point.
The result gave PSV a chance to close the gap as they headed into their later match, a tough trip to third-placed Feyenoord.
Roger Schmidt's side looked to be cruising to a significant away win when Cody Gapko put them 2-0 up with his goals in the 16th and 29th minutes. But PSV failed to build on that advantage in the second period and were made to pay when Cyriel Dessers replied with a double of his own.
