Ajax fines Steven Berghuis for hitting a fan after season-ending loss
Amsterdam football club Ajax fined their player, Steven Berghuis, after he struck a fan following the 3-1 defeat at FC Twente, the last match of the Eredivisie season. The club announced the punishment on Sunday evening after a conversation with the footballer, who has since expressed regret. Berghuis, who has played 45 times for the Dutch men’s national team, lost his self-control just before he boarded the players’ bus in Enschede, as could be seen on a video circulating on the internet. FC Twente is among the teams Berghuis played for in the past.
