Lassina Traore bags brace as Ajax ease past Holstein Kiel

Lassina Traore scored a brace to help Ajax secure a 5-2 victory over Holstein Kiel in a pre-season friendly on Tuesday.

The 19-year-old has continued to show what he is capable of since teaming up with the Sons of the Gods In January 2019.

Traore, who has made five league appearances for the Dutch outfit so far, again shone at Tc Strahov, inspiring them to victory against the German club.

The Burkina Faso international ignited the glut of goals three minutes into the encounter with a well-taken effort.

Devyne Rensch doubled the lead in the 25th minute before Traore completed his brace, converting from the penalty spot nine minutes later.
