First Game

The first game I ever went to was Ajax - SC Heerenveen in October the 31st of 2007. KNVB Cup-game which ended in a 3-1 victory for Ajax.

Best Game

Ajax - OGC Nice in August 2017. It was the first game after Abdelhak Nouri's tragedy and I've never witnessed a more silent crowd than the 50,000+ there were back then when a video of Nouri's highlights came across. The atmosphere was insane after that, singing throughout the whole 90 minutes despite drawing 2-2.

Worst Game

Ajax - De Graafschap in december 2015. Never in my life have I witnessed a worse match of my favourite team than this one. League leaders against an awful De Graafschap side, match ended in a struggling 2-1 via a messy goal in the 70th minute of Riechedly Bazoer.

St James' Park. The atmosphere, the surroundings, the noise and the history there are off the charts.

Went there for a game of Sunday League football. Awful facilities, frozen ground; your usual Sunday League ground.
