Mohammed Kudus’ Ajax set for an early exit from UCL after second defeat to Napoli in Group A

Published on: 13 October 2022

Dutch giants, Ajax are on the brink of elimination from this season’s Uefa Champions League following three successive defeats in Group A.

The club on Wednesday evening locked horns with SSC Napoli in the fourth group game of the campaign.

On the matchday, Ghana star Mohammed Kudus was in action for the team as the Dutch side chased victory against the Italian Serie A team.

Unfortunately, the defending Eredivisie side was no match for the opponent.

A strong display from SSC Napoli saw the team cruise past Ajax with a deserved 4-2 victory to go top of the Group A standings of this season’s Uefa Champions League.

The defeat meant that Ajax are now on just three points from the first four matches in the group.

The team won the first game against Rangers but has since gone to sleep and lost once to Liverpool and twice to Napoli.

If Mohammed Kudus and his Ajax teammates want to stay in the European inter-club competition, the side must win the remaining two matches in the group and hope results from other grounds go in their favour.
