Ajax lost to Bulgarian side Ludogorets in the Johan Cruijff arena on Thursday. A goal by Matias Tissera gave the away side the victory. Ajax qualified for the Europa League on aggregate as they had won the first leg 4-1. Ajax started the match without Steven Berghuis. Manager Maurice Steijn wanted to start Berghuis to give the midfielder some match fitness, but he is ill. Berghuis will serve the last match of his three-game suspension this weekend in the Eredivisie.
