Respected Dutch pundit Henk Spaan has praised the performance of Tyronne Ebuehi in ADO Den Haag's goalless draw with Ajax Amsterdam in the Dutch Eredivisie on Sunday.

In a personal duel with one of most exciting teenagers in the Netherlands, the Nigeria international made the much-coveted left winger Justin Kluivert ineffective and he had to be replaced in the 85th minute.

''Justin today played against a right back (Tyronne Ebuehi) who goes to Benfica at the end of the season,'' Spaan said in a television program on Ziggo Sport.

''He played him completely out of the game. According to himself and his agent, this is a level at which he should act ..."

Against Ajax Amsterdam, Ebuehi touched the ball 64 times, made 33 passes with a passing accuracy of 72.7 percent and conceded no fouls

The 22-year-old right-back played his 78th game in all competitions against the capital outfit.
