AMSTERDAM (Reuters) - Ajax Amsterdam made a dazzling run to the Champions League semi- finals last season, knocking out Juventus and Real Madrid along the way, but that did not earn them any extra credits for this year’s competition.

Three months after Tottenham’s dramatic 96th-minute goal crushed the Dutch side's hopes of a first Champions League final in 23 years, Ajax find themselves one goal away from exiting Europe's elite competition before it has properly started.
