Ajax storm to a 4-2 win against FC Twente in Sunday afternoon's Eredivisie clash at the Amsterdam ArenA.

Ajax have stormed to a 4-2 win against FC Twente in this afternoon's Eredivisie clash at the Amsterdam ArenA.

The visitors took the lead in the sixth minute when Hakim Ziyech's cross from the flank was nodded home by Jesus Corona.

Just four minutes later, however, the Amsterdam giants were level, courtesy of Nick Viergever latching on to Ricardo Kishna's corner and firing into the net.

On the quarter-hour mark, the hosts were in front for the first time in the game as Riechedly Bazoer chested down Daley Sinkgraven's long ball before slotting home.

Ziyech then equalised for Twente in the 50th minute when he was first to the loose ball after Luc Castaignos's initial effort was saved by Jasper Cillessen, who couldn't keep out the rebound.

Ajax were back in the lead before long, though, as Anwar El Ghazi's through-ball to Kishna was tucked into the bottom corner of the net by the 20-year-old prodigy.

And the hosts were soon home and dry after Kishna struck again in the 75th minute - Ajax's 5000th goal in the Eredivisie.
