Junker joy at Vitesse comeback

Mads Junker was thrilled after Vitesse Arnhem hit back from 2-0 down to beat Ajax 4-2.

Mads Junker was thrilled to make a key contribution as Vitesse Arnhem hit back from 2-0 down to beat Ajax 4-2.

Ajax looked set to take the points as Zdenek Grygera and Tom De Mul netted in the first half, but Junker combined with Danko Lazovic to pull a goal back for Vitesse after 49 minutes.

"We were both skilled and a bit lucky to get the score to 1-2," he told BT.

Junker levelled just two minutes later and Vitesse ran out comfortable winners after Ajax's Gabri was given his marching orders.

"We scored to make it 2-2 and then they got a red card. Thereafter, we controlled the match."
