ROTTERDAM, Dec 23 (Reuters) - Miralem Sulejmani struck three minutes before halftime to earn Ajax Amsterdam a 1-0 home win over 10-man AZ Alkmaar in the fifth round of the Dutch Cup on Thursday.
In the third match under command of coach Frank de Boer, Demy de Zeeuw set up Sulejmani who finished with a superb chip while Alkmaar’s Pontus Wernbloom was sent off 18 minutes before time.
