Ghanaian sensation Mohammed Kudus showcased his exceptional skills as he played a crucial role in Ajax’s resounding 3-0 victory over Shakhtar Donetsk in a pre-season friendly.

The dynamic Black Stars midfielder started the match and made a significant impact before being substituted at halftime. Kudus opened the scoring for the Dutch giants in the 19th minute with a well-taken penalty. He then turned provider, setting up Steven Bergwijn to double Ajax’s lead in the 32nd minute.

Not content with just an assist, Kudus found the back of the net himself just two minutes later, capitalizing on a pass from Bergwijn to make it 3-0 for Ajax. The team headed into halftime with a comfortable three-goal advantage at the Sportpark De Toekomst.

In the second half, there were no further goals, and Ajax cruised to a convincing victory over their Ukrainian opponents.

Kudus, who enjoyed a remarkable campaign last season, scoring 18 goals and providing 5 assists across various competitions, will be aiming to maintain his excellent form in the upcoming season for the Dutch outfit.
