The KNVB professional football prosecutor commented on the Classic, which was canceled at the end of September. After the interruption (0:4) in the match against Feyenoord, Ajax had to play a match without fanatical fans. The Amsterdam club will also receive a fine of 25,000 euros.
This means that Ajax will have to leave boxes 125-129 blank in their home match against Vitesse, where the F team will play on Saturday, November 25th. In the statement made by the KNVB, it was said: “When determining the penalty, Ajax’s penalty card containing various notes was taken into account, taking into account the nature and seriousness of the crime.”
In the 44th minute of the match, in which Feyenoord was leading 3-0, Ajax fans threw torches onto the field, temporarily stopping the game. The game was stopped for a while after a plastic cup was thrown onto the field a short time ago.
When a flare was thrown onto the field again after the first half, referee Serdar Gözübüyük decided to stop the match permanently. Riots subsequently broke out inside and outside the stadium, resulting in numerous police officers being injured and the stadium’s main entrance severely damaged.
A few days later the match was played in an empty Johan Cruijff Arena and Feyenoord won 4-0.
