The game was suspended at one stage as missiles rained down from the stands, making it impossible for the match to continue due to the threat posed to player safety. It was decided to continue after a brief delay, but a second suspension was required as flares continued to land on the playing surface.

Ajax were trailing 3-0 in a meeting with their fiercest rivals when proceedings were brought to a halt, with Santiago Gimenez bagging a brace before Igor Paixao also got in on the act before half-time. Supporters then took matters into their own hands in a bid to cause chaos.

DID YOU KNOW?

Ajax are likely to find themselves in trouble with the Dutch football authorities after failing to control the behaviour of those in the stands. Punishments will be handed out by the KNVB once it is determined how severe they should be. The Amsterdam giants will also see questions asked of how a group of hooligans were allowed to storm the stadium entrance – leading to tear gas going off and riot police being deployed.

WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?

Ajax headed into derby day sat 13th in the Eredivisie table on the back of a disappointing start to the 2023-24 campaign – picking up just five points – while reigning champions Feyenoord are hot on the heels of PSV at the top of the division.
