Ajax start title defence with 3-0 win over Roda


AMSTERDAM (Reuters) - Ajax had an easy start to the defence of their Dutch league title with a 3-0 home win over Roda JC Kerkrade thanks to goals from Ricardo van Rhijn, captain Siem de Jong and Viktor Fisher at the Amsterdam ArenA on Friday.

Ajax, who have won three league titles in a row under coach Frank de Boer, dominated the match against a Roda side who sold Syria striker Sanharib Malki, their top scorer last season with 17 league goals, to Turkey's Kasimpasa in the transfer window.
