I’ve often seen people talk about how Ajax reached the UCL semis in the 18/19 season and had a great season,but no one talks about Villarreal , they also had a great run to the UCL semi finals in 21/22 , teams like lyon also reached the semi finals in 19/20 ,yet no one talks about these teams.what was so great about Ajax’s run that season ?
Lyon did it in one leg ties which kind of devalues it imo.
Villarreal was lucky and not very talented
Ajax legit looked like they were the better team than juve and real. If they played each other a few times you’d feel like they were favorites. Villarreal was just kinda lucky.
