Henderson fight with Ajax teammate in Europa League victory

Former Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson was removed from a heated argument with Ajax teammate Bertrand Traore.

They were involved in an exchange amid their club’s dominant play against Besiktas.

In the first game of their Europa League journey, Ajax hosted the Turkish team.

The Dutch giant scored a 4-0 victory, starting off their optimistic path to the final in style. 

However, emotions ran high in the second half when Traore conceded the ball in a dangerous area, leading to a clash with Henderson. 

“There are many areas we can improve on. Hopefully, we can show that tomorrow (Thursday). It’s already a challenge to demonstrate this,” Henderson had said before the match.

“With small details, we could have done better in Deventer, like winning second balls and winning duels in general. There are more matches now. Especially for players who also compete internationally, the schedule is packed. It’s a lot when you think about it.”
