Although Volendam tried to launch a comeback through goals from Lequincio Zeefuik and Carel Eiting, the former European champions ensured victory courtesy of goals from Brian Brobbey and Davy Klaassen.

This is the defender’s first goal for the team and a perfect response to ex-midfielder Marciano Vink – who claimed Bassey is a poor passer. Meanwhile, Ajax put in a statement performance that further suggested that their 6-1 loss to Napoli was a blip.

Aside from his maiden strike for Alfred Schreuder’s men, Bassey put up a commanding display with stats showing he accounted for four total tackles, one clearance with two shots on target from his defensive duties.
