Getafe boss José Bordalas: Ajax still favourites in Europa League tie

Last season’s Champions League semi-finalists appear to be on the brink of elimination from European football at the Round of 32 stage after a damaging first leg defeat in Madrid.

It was two loanees who scored the goals for Los Azulones as Deyverson, on a temporary deal from Palmeiras, opened the scoring eight minutes before the break before Chelsea loanee Kenedy doubled the advantage in added time at the end of the game.

Ajax are six points clear at the top of the Dutch Eredivisie and were strongly fancied to progress here despite Getafe sitting third in the La Liga standings.
