LONDON (REUTERS) - Ajax Amsterdam took a frightful stride towards a first Champions League answer for 23 years as Donny van de Beek's upfront ambition earned a 1-0 win at Tottenham Hotspur in the first leg of their semi-final on Tuesday (April 30).Erik ten Hag's juvenile Ajax side, featuring several players polished in the Dutch club's famed academy, were too lithe for a laboured Spurs team who hardly got a kick in the introduction 25 minutes of their first European mug semi-final for 57 years.Such was Ajax's domination in the upfront stages that they could already have very nearly sound a place in the answer - but they had to be content subsequent to Van de Beek's 15th minute goal. Tottenham terribly missed disrespected striker Harry Kane and the suspended Son Heung-min and managed single-handedly one shot on target.Had David Neres' shot not bounced encourage off the base of the publicize late on it would have been an even more calamitous night for Mauricio Pochettino's struggling side.As it stands they will go to Amsterdam next week subsequent to a glimmer of hope, even if single-handedly one club have ever reached the answer by overturning a first-leg house loss. "The away ambition was the most important. unfortunately Neres hit the upright. If that had subsequent to in, it would have been even better," Ajax's 19-year-old skipper Matthijs de Ligt said.

"But we must be satisfied subsequent to the 1-0 score. It was a tough battle but we were fortunately completely bright tonight."Christian Eriksen, one of four former Ajax players in Tottenham's team, summed up the house mood."We were under-par, we didn't perform our best at all. In the first 20 minutes, we were ball-watchers. We habit to fiddle with it up a lot for the next game," the Dane said."We're lucky they hit the publicize and hopefully we can outlook things all but in Amsterdam."TOO GOOD
Ajax have already proved too fine for real Madrid and Juventus in the competition this season and were streets ahead of Spurs in the first half on a perfect night for football.Tottenham were chasing shadows and fell astern after a quarter of an hour subsequent to Ajax sliced through the house defence subsequent to their quick-passing game.Hakim Ziyech threaded the ball through to Van de Beek and the midfielder calmly placed his shot subsequent to keeper Hugo Lloris.There was a suspicion of offside but unlike in Tottenham's epic quarter-final win greater than Manchester City, subsequent to Raheem Sterling's stoppage-time ambition was ruled out, VAR could not keep the London side this get older as the Ajax fans celebrated.Van de Beek should have made it 2-0 from Dusan Tadic's pass as Ajax dominated and subsequent to Spurs defender Jan Vertonghen was replaced by Moussa Sissoko in the 39th minute after a stroke of heads subsequent to team mate and fellow former Ajax artiste Toby Alderweireld, it seemed nothing was going right for the hosts.Tottenham's 34-year-old striker Fernando Llorente did his best to lead a blunt antagonism subsequent to little service, but the Spaniard headed wide from Kieran Trippier's cross.The introduction of midfield powerhouse Sissoko injected some much-needed animatronics into a flagging Tottenham side and he fizzed a shot wide from Llorente's knockdown previously halftime.Spurs enjoyed their best spell upfront in the second get older as they switched to a more speak to log on and Dele Alli had a couple of half chances.But Ajax showed they can defend as competently as antagonism and rarely looked stretched as the hosts huffed and puffed in search of an equaliser.Tottenham were vulnerable to the counter, however, and Ajax came close to doubling the lead, and leaving behind Spurs subsequent to a near-impossible task in the second leg, after 78 minutes subsequent to Tadic partnered up subsequent to Neres whose side-footed shot struck the post.
