THE HAGUE, Jan. 31 (Xinhua) -- Ajax strengthened its lead in the Dutch Eredivisie on Sunday by beating AZ 3-0 in Alkmaar, while their main rival PSV lost 3-1 at Feyenoord.
It was Super Sunday in the Netherlands with two matches featuring four giants.
AZ had chances through Albert Gudmundsson in Alkmaar, but Ajax was more effective.
Antony opened the scoring, Davy Klaassen volleyed home the second goal and in injury-time, David Neres made it 3-0 for the league leaders.
After three defeats in a row, Feyenoord had an astonishing start against PSV in Rotterdam, with Mark Diemers and captain Steven Berghuis finding the net and Bryan Linssen chipping in the third goal before half-time. A lackluster PSV was not able to bounce back, as Ibrahim Sangare produced the consolation goal.
