ROTTERDAM: Ajax Amsterdam clinched their 31st Dutch championship beating lowly VVV Venlo 2-0 on Wednesday with Siem de Jong scoring both goals. De Jong netted a rebound after eight minutes to put Frank de Boer's team ahead and the striker added a second 13 minutes into the second half to start the celebrations. "The title last season felt unforgettable as the club was waiting for it so long," De Boer told reporters. "But this one is more special for me and my staff," added the coach. Having been sixth in the league trailing PSV Eindhoven by eight points after 20 games, Ajax put together a run of 13 straight wins to the championship with a match to spare.
