Ajax lost to amateur team USV Hercules in the second round of the Dutch Cup, the KNVB Beker, on Thursday in one of the biggest shock results in Dutch football. The amateurs went 2-0 up before the Amsterdammers scored twice in the last ten minutes to level it before Mats Grotenberg scored a dramatic late winning goal in the 93rd minute. Ajax manager John Van't Schip rotated his side to give youngster Tristan Gooijer his first start and gave Georgian big-money signing Georges Mikautadze a rare start.
