Ajax Amsterdam fan suffers grievous injuries after falling down from stands during celebration

Ajax beat Barcelona 2-1 in last night’s UEFA Champions League group fixture, but in celebrating one of the goals, a fan endured a rather unfortunate fate as he fell from the stands seriously injuring himself in the process.

The fan fell from around 5m (16 ft) above the ground just before half-time when the Amsterdam Arena burst into life as Danny Hoesen scored for the hosts to give them a 2-0 lead.

He is reported to have suffered serious head injuries and was taken to hospital immediately. His current condition though is unknown.

Also apparently, the two ambulances that rushed to help injured supporter collided with each other, before one took him away.

Ajax ended up winning the match 2-1 and the win helped them keep their chances of qualification alive.
