VIDEO: Arokodare’s goal lifts Ajax over AZ Alkmaar
The Nigerian striker continues to be a Saviour to his team, breaking a jinx over their eternal opponent with his goal.
Nigeria’s Tolu Arokodare headed in a fantastic goal in the ninth minute to give Ajax a crucial 1-0 victory over AZ Alkmaar on Saturday, 31 October 2026.
The striker capitalised on a precise cross from Abdellah Ouazane, heading home the only goal of the match at the Johan Cruijff Arena.
The win effectively ended an 11-match winless streak across all competitions against their bogey team, AZ Alkmaar.
The three points also catapulted Michel Sanchez's side back into second place in the Eredivisie standings, just one point behind league leaders Feyenoord.
The forward—on loan from Wolverhampton Wanderers—has now racked up 10 goals across all competitions this season, including 6 in Eredivisie league play.
