In a remarkable UEFA Europa League performance, Dutch-born Ghanaian forward Brian Brobbey helped lead Ajax to a commanding 5-0 victory over Maccabi Tel Aviv. The 22-year-old attacker proved instrumental on Thursday night, delivering two crucial assists and scoring a goal to cap off Ajax’s impressive win.

Ajax took an early lead with Burkina Faso international Bertrand Traoré finding the net just 14 minutes in. Brobbey soon made his mark, setting up Kenneth Taylor in the 27th minute to double the lead. Before the halftime whistle, Mika Godts added a third goal, giving Ajax a 3-0 advantage as they entered the break.

Brobbey continued to shine in the second half, scoring his first goal in weeks and contributing to Ajax’s seamless dominance. Kian Fitz-Jim rounded off the scoring to seal a 5-0 triumph. Reflecting on his performance, Brobbey expressed relief at ending his scoring drought and praised his teammates and coaches for their support during a challenging period.

With two goals and five assists in 16 appearances this season, Brobbey’s standout performance provides renewed momentum for Ajax as they look to advance further in the Europa League.
