THE cup match between Ajax and AZ Alkmaar that was halted after a fan ran on to the pitch and attacked AZ goalkeeper Esteban Alvarado will be replayed in full next month behind closed doors, the Dutch football association announced yesterday.
The December 21 match at the Amsterdam Arena was abandoned in the 36th minute with AZ trailing 1-0 after Alvarado was sent off for kicking the 19-year-old fan who had launched a karate-style kick at him from behind.
The Dutch FA said in a statement it "would be unreasonable" to resume the match in the 37th minute because AZ would have to play with 10 men due to the Costa Rica goalkeeper's red card, even though it was later rescinded. The match will be played without fans from either side, "because the association does not want to take any risks."
Police arrested 25 fans amid rioting outside the stadium after the match was called off last week. The rematch will be played on January 19.
