Ajax and Panathinaikos could not find the strongest in normal and extra time and made history by taking penalty kicks.

The spectators at the arena in Amsterdam saw an incredible football show the other day. Here Ajax met Panathinaikos in the second leg of the third qualifying round of the Europa League.

The Dutch club lost by one goal, but as they narrowly won the first match, the teams decided the winner in a penalty shootout.

In the end, the teams needed 34 shots to end the series with a victory for Ajax. It was the longest penalty shootout in the history of European competition.

The goalkeeper for Ajax is the 40-year-old goalkeeper Remko Pasver, who has become a real hero of the team. He brought his team victory in penalty kicks with a score of 13:12.

Let’s remember that the second result in penalty kicks in the history of European Cups was also set the previous day.

In the Conference League, Wisla of Poland and Spartak Trnava of Slovakia scored 28 shots in their penalty shootout. Poles won.

Let’s remember that Real Madrid won the UEFA Super Cup without any problems.
