Ajaxides on the road lost to Lyon with a score of 1: 3, but eventually reached the final of the Europa League. This became possible due to the home victory of Ajaxids with the score 4: 1.

In the final of the second most important European tournament, the Dutch team will fight with Manchester United.

The final match will be held on May 24 in Solna (Sweden), at the French Arena. Note that the winner of the tournament will be eligible to play next season in the Champions League.
