Chelsea produced a ruthless display at Stamford Bridge, crushing Ajax 5-1 in a match overshadowed by an early red card.
Liverpool end losing streak with emphatic win at Frankfurt
Liverpool rediscovered their winning form with a stunning 5-1 victory over Eintracht Frankfurt, ending a disappointing run of four consecutive defeats. The Reds initially found themselves behind after 26 minutes when the German side scored from a well-executed counter-attack. That setback proved to be the wake-up call Liverpool needed. The response was swift and decisive. Former Frankfurt player Hugo Ekitike opened the scoring against his old club, before defenders Virgil van Dijk and Ibrahima Konaté both found the net from corner kicks. Liverpool went into halftime with a comfortable lead, having completely turned the match around.
The second half saw Liverpool add further gloss to the scoreline. Cody Gakpo and Dominik Szoboszlai both got on the scoresheet, capping off an impressive performance that will provide a significant confidence boost for the Merseyside club as they look to rebuild momentum in both domestic and European competition.
Tottenham frustrated in Monaco stalemate
Tottenham Hotspur had to settle for a 0-0 draw away to AS Monaco, despite the home side dominating proceedings throughout the match. Monaco, under the new management of former Belgian international Sébastien Pocognoli, will rue their missed opportunities after creating numerous chances. While only one team truly looked capable of winning, Monaco's profligacy in front of goal proved costly. The French side generated chance after chance, particularly in the second half, but repeatedly failed to convert their dominance into goals. For Tottenham, the draw represents a solid point earned on the road, though they will acknowledge they were fortunate to escape with a clean sheet given Monaco's overwhelming pressure.
Chelsea demolish ten-man Ajax at Stamford Bridge
Chelsea produced a clinical performance to thrash Ajax 5-1 at Stamford Bridge, with the visitors' task made significantly harder by an early red card. The match turned decisively in the 15th minute when Ajax captain Kenneth Taylor was shown a straight red card for a dangerous tackle. Referee Felix Zwayer initially brandished a yellow card but upgraded it to red after VAR intervention. Chelsea capitalized immediately on their numerical advantage. Marc Guiu opened the scoring from the resulting free kick, giving the Blues a 1-0 lead. Just 11 minutes later, Moises Caicedo doubled the advantage with a long-range effort that deflected off Ajax defender Josip Sutalo, leaving goalkeeper Remko Pasveer helpless.
Ajax briefly threatened a comeback when Tosin Adarabioyo fouled Raul Moro in the penalty area. Wout Weghorst converted the spot-kick to make it 2-1, giving the traveling Dutch supporters something to cheer about in the rainy London evening. However, Chelsea's dominance proved overwhelming. Just before halftime, Weghorst conceded a penalty after clumsily fouling Enzo Fernández in the Ajax box. Fernández stepped up to dispatch the penalty himself, restoring Chelsea's two-goal cushion at 3-1.
Moments later, another penalty was awarded when Youri Baas was adjudged to have committed a foul. Estevão made no mistake from the spot, sending Chelsea into the break with a commanding 4-1 lead.
The second half brought little respite for Ajax. Tyrique George added a fifth goal just three minutes after the restart, with his shot deflecting off Lucas Rosa past Pasveer. Chelsea could have extended their lead further but were wasteful with several chances in the closing stages.
Good results for English teams
Wednesday's results highlighted the contrasting fortunes of England's Champions League representatives. Liverpool's emphatic victory in Germany will provide much-needed relief after their recent poor form, while Chelsea's dominant display against a depleted Ajax side demonstrated their attacking prowess. Tottenham, meanwhile, will be satisfied with a hard-earned point in Monaco, even if they rode their luck at times.
