Sergio Ramos may have been regretting his decision to pick up a yellow card late on in the first leg so he would be suspended for the second tie.Raphael Varane’s header rattled the crossbar early on but Ajax raced into an early lead through Ziyech after being set up by Tadic.He then provided the chance for David Neres to scored the second in the 18th minute.Real Madrid were forced into two changes when Lucas Vazquez and Vinicius Junior went off injured, with substitute Gareth Bale hitting the post just before half-time.Dusan Tadic scores his goal for Ajax3

Ajax looked to have put the tie to bed when Tadic swept in a brilliant third goal just after the hour – which was eventually given following an extensive Video Assistant Referee review to check if the ball had gone out of play in the build-up.Substitute Marco Asensio briefly gave Real hope when he put the ball in off the post with 20 minutes left.Lasse Schone, though, capped a brilliant night for Erik Ten Hag’s side when he curled in an angled free-kick over Thibaut Courtois on 72 minutes. Real finished with 10 men after Nacho picked up two needless late cautions.The defeat was a fourth successive home loss for Los Blancos following on from being beaten by arch-rivals Barcelona in LaLiga on Saturday – and will see pressure mount on manager Santiago Solari.Ajax, meanwhile, go on to reach the Champions League quarter-finals for the first time since 2003.
