Ajax put more of an emphasis on playing attacking football whilst clinging onto a 4-4 draw with nine men than Arsenal do at home to mid-table sides lmao.

Is there any game more beautiful than football?..the rollercoaster emotions....Well, it's always easier to comment when you are not on the losing side!! Dont question the red cards & the penalties..they are part of the game #CHEAJA
I’m a Chelsea fan but I have to say that Ajax with 9 men are more dangerous than a Manchester United Team with 11 men.
