Ajax ready for Nice in Champions League qualifier

Wednesday, August 02 2017 by 7MTV
  • Ajax Amsterdam prepared for the second leg of their UEFA Champions League qualifier against Nice.

    SOUNDBITE: (Dutch) Marcel Keizer, Ajax Amsterdam coach:

    (on what he expects from Nice tomorrow)

    "I think that they will have a strong defence, and if we lose the ball they will come back very quickly. They are very fast, they have players who know how to keep the ball, and with two or three passes they can make it to the other side of the pitch as they did last week. So I don't think that the game will be that much different from last week."

    SOUNDBITE: (Dutch) Marcel Keizer, Ajax Amsterdam coach:

    (on whether Mario Balotelli's absence will make a difference):

    "No, it's not going to change much for us, Nice have some very good players who can take his place. They are not a team of only 11 players, they have some very good players who can play instead of Balotelli, so we will prepare for this game the same way we did last week."
