AEK Athens – Ajax 0-2
When AEK Athens accepted Ajax for the Champions League duel at Athens Olympic Stadium on Tuesday night, the match erupted.
Social media videos and photos of photographers in the arena show the scenes of violence that erupted before the game.
According to NTB, the AFP news agency reported that eleven people had been injured but none was serious.

Only one supporter of the AEK Athenian also ran to the left wing. Then he threw a Bengal light directly into the crowd:
Before the match, violent scenes between police forces and Ajax fans also broke out. The police were equipped with helmets, shields and batons:
The pictures show a supporter with blood streaming from the forehead:
Matthijs de Ligt, Ajax player, tried to calm the fans before starting:
The scene of violence was stopped in time and the match could begin until the set time. Ajax won 2-0 and continued in the Champions League. AEK Athena is at the bottom of group E with zero points.
The European Football Association (UEFA) will probably start disciplinary proceedings after the bad scenes preceding the match.
It was not just before the settlement that it was a problem. It has been reported that supporters of the team were involved in violent episodes in Athens Monday night and earlier today Tuesday.
Also during the Benfica-Ajax operation in early November, the police had to burst in with Ajax supporters.
