In a desperate bid to reach the semi-finals, Simone drove his team to a heroic performance and obtained the vital point that keeps Milan's hopes alive for what amounts to a play-off against Bayern Munich next week.
It was the dutch team who scored first though, Mattia setting up Marco who cut the ball back cleverly into the opposite corner. It looked like Ajax might cruise to another win but Milan didn't lie down and Simone equalised before half time, scoring straight from a corner.
In the second half, Mattia put the Amsterdam champions ahead when his shot took Danilo by surprise but Milan threw players forward and created enough pressure and chances to ensure that Simone struck again.
Milan then retired into defence and held on for a draw.
BEST PLAYER POINTS: Simone 4, Harry 3, Marco 3, Mattia M 2, Ludo J 2, Jiaqi 2, Antoine 2, Tommaso 1, Danilo 1, Joao 1
