Ajax seems to be a team of Davids - hell-bent on taking on every Goliath they come across. The Eredivisie outfit stunned the footballing folks yet again with their exemplary performance against a mighty Juventus, dumping them out of the UCL.

Eric ten Hag's men are also locked in a close battle with PSV Eindhoven for the Dutch league title, holding the first place due to a better goal difference.

Their attacking manoeuvres have been lauded all over the world. They have netted 111 goals in the league, more than any other team in Europe, which speaks volumes about their ability to score with aplomb.

May will be a crucial month for Ajax as they look to book a final berth in the UCL, lift the Dutch Eredivisie title and win the KNVB Cup final. If they do win everything, no doubt it will be a lore to narrate for the coming ages.
