Eyal Golasa breathed new life into Maccabi Tel Aviv's Europa League campaign by firing a late winner in Holland.
The Israeli midfielder ensured Maccabi secured their first win of the group stages as the visitors scored in each half to claim a crucial win.
AZ Alkmaar were denied by the woodwork after just four minutes when defender Derrick Luckassen saw his header crash back off the crossbar.
Maccabi opened the scoring midway through the first half when striker Ezequiel Scarione latched on to a superb pass from man-of-the-match Haris Medunjanin to volley across the keeper and into the net.
