Angry Ajax captain Jordan Henderson tears into Bertrand Traore during big Europa League win over Besiktas before two team-mates break-up row


Ajax extended their unbeaten streak to five matches by thrashing Besiktas 4-0 in the Europa League on Thursday night but captain Jordan Henderson was not happy.

The former Liverpool skipper tore into team-mate Bertrand Traore the winger had given away possession cheaply.

Ajax were 3-0 up at this point but Henderson still deemed it necessary to publicly berate Traore, who appeared to respond with some choice words of his own.

Henderson was visibly furious was he was pushed away from Traore by two other teammates – Devyne Rensch and then Kian Fitz-Jim. 

Thirty-four-year-old Henderson – who joined Ajax from Saudi Pro League side Al-Ettifaq in January – played the full 90 minutes on Thursday night.

Fitz-Jim scored the opening goal just after the half-hour mark in Amsterdam.

Traore then set up Mika Godts for the second goal of the night, before Kenneth Taylor made it 3-0.

Godts scored again in the 73rd minute to wrap up an emphatic victory.
