Just after the break, Ajax doubled their lead through Kaj Sierhuis, who finished Anderson Lopez’s cross into the bottom corner. Juventus, who has wonderkid Moise Kean in their side created chances before the end but Ajax held on to book their place in the next round.
Ajax will now join PSV in the last 16 of the tournament.
