Ghana forward, Mohammed Kudus was adjudged Man of the Match after his outstanding performance for Dutch champions Ajax in the 4-0 victory against Rangers in the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday.

Kudus produced an intriguing performance to inspire Ajax to beat the Scottish giants in their Group A opener at the Johan Cruijff Arena.

The home side took a deserving lead in the 17th-minute courtesy goal from Edson Alvarez, heading home a corner-kick from Steven Berghuis.

Berghuis will go ahead to double the lead in the 32nd minute after receiving an assist from the Ghana international who was making his first start of the season

Just a minute later, Kudus displayed his brilliance with a solo run to score a spectacular goal to ensure his team went into the break with a 3-goal lead.

Thanks to a goal from Steven Bergwijn in the 80th minute, Ajax secured a well-deserved 4-0 win at the end of the 90 minutes to pick all three big points at stake.

Kudus was the eye-catcher of the night as he got the highest rating from the team from Amsterdam earning him the MVP by UEFA.

According to OptaJohan, Kudus was only the seventh player in the last 15 years to both score a goal, assist a goal and not misplace a single pass in a Champions League match, becoming the first to do it since Serge Gnabry in 2020.

The former Ghana youth star had 100% pass completion and also had 100% in dribble attempts in the match.
