Dutch giants Ajax beat Ukrainian side Dynamo Kiev 3-2 on aggregate to book their ticket for the Champions League group stage, only to be drawn in the so-called 'group of death' with Milan, Real Madrid and Auxerre.
Head coach Martin Jol was looking forward to meeting traditional European powerhouses such as Milan and Real Madrid, but was also quick to admit that it will be hard for the Amsterdam side to survive the group stage.
"We drew some tough opponents in Madrid and Milan, but these are incredible names. There are also some Dutch players involved. But at the same time, remembering that you have to win in football, it's really tough," said Jol on uefa.com.
"The fourth side in the group are Auxerre and that's a pity. I would have swapped them for a team like MSK Zilina. You have to bear in mind that you might be playing for third place and that is now more difficult, because Auxerre are about as good as we are.
