　　Ajax dominated the first half against AZ in Amsterdam, but was not able to create many chances. Defender² Niklas Moisander was closest to a goal by hitting the post after a free-kick by Lasse Schone.

　　In the second half Ajax continued pressing AZ backwards³, but the home-team squandered⁴ some chances by hitting too high or wide. AZ waited for their chance and that chance came in the 74th minute. After bad defending by Ajax Adam Maher crossed from the backline and Jozy Altidore headed in. In the final minutes Johann Berg Gudmundsson and Altidore even made it 3-0.

　　PSV had no difficulties at PEC Zwolle. Due to the absence of the suspended Jeremain Lens and ailing⁵ Tim Matavz, Jurgen Locadia had a starting place for PSV. The 19-year-old striker impressed by scoring three goals, in the 16th, the 34th and the 85th minute.

　　"We won the Super Cup, made it to the Cup final and are still title contenders," said coach Dick Advocaat. "It could be worse."

　　The final will be played on May 9 in Rotterdam. Last year PSV won the final by beating Heracles Almelo 3-0.
