PSV opened the defence of their title with a win on Sunday but it
was Ajax who stole the headlines after a stunning 8-1 win at De
Graafschap.
Ibrahim Afellay and Mike Zonneveld scored in the last seven minutes
as PSV edged past Heracles Almelo while Ajax found it much easier
in Doetinchem with Klaas-Jan Huntelaar scoring four times in the
rout.
Huntelaar, left out of the Holland squad this week, opened the
scoring after 36 minutes and completed his quartet of goals in the
final 20 minutes.
Luis Suarez and Kennedy Bakircioglu were also on target, as was
Hedwiges Maduro who netted twice.
Donny De Groot scored for the hosts but it was a chastening day for
Jan de Jonge's men.
