Ajax maintained their strong start to the new Eredivisie season with a 3-0 win over Willem II.

The home side took the lead in the 18th minute when Davy Klaassen crossed for striker Arkadiusz Milik, and he planted his header firmly past the goalkeeper.

The visitors went close to equalising on the stroke of half time as Stijn Wuytens hit the crossbar from close range, while Lesley De Sa forced Jasper Cillessen into a finger-tipped save after the break.

Ajax doubled their lead just after the hour-mark as Riechedly Bazoer set up Anwar El Ghazi, and he lashed the ball into the corner from the edge of the box.

El Ghazi added his second in injury time when he tapped in from close range to confirm the victory.
