The KNVB Beker (Dutch Cup) clash between Ajax Amsterdam and AZ Alkmaar, which was suspended due to an attack on AZ keeper Esteban Alvarado in the initial encounter, was completed today in the Amsterdam ArenA with the home side going down to a 3-2 defeat.

Siem de Jong gave Ajax the lead as early as the 10th minute only for the visitors to restore parity fourteen minutes later through Maarten Martins.

AZ keeper Esteban Alvarado was sent off following this incident on Wednesday

AZ Alkmaar goalkeeper Esteban Alvarado has had his red card from Wednesday's Round of 16 KNVB Beker (Dutch Cup) match against Ajax Amsterdam rescinded.

The keeper was attacked by an Ajax fan only for Esteban to retaliate on the attacker by kicking him whilst he was on the ground, a response which was deemed inappropriate by referee Bas Nijhuis who then sent off the keeper much to the astonishment and fury of the AZ players and staff.

Liverpool striker Luis Suarez has been handed an eight-match ban and a £40,000 fine by the FA after being found guilty of racially abusing Manchester United's Patrice Evra. The news has been slightly overshadowed by a crazy statement released by Liverpool in the wake of the news. It ranks around the same level of Rafa [.

Liverpool voiced out their rage after acknowledging FA's punishment towards their star striker, Luis Suarez, who received an eight match as he is being found guilty in making a racist remarks towards Manchester United's Patrice Evra.

The Reds, through their official voiced out a stern disapproval statement regarding the decision, but reports stated that the club's response was taken off from their site 30 minutes after being shown.

Luis Suárez: Liverpool statement

• Club are 'very surprised and disappointed' • Statement: 'Luis Suárez is innocent' Liverpool FC is very surprised and disappointed with the decision of the FA commission to find Luis Suárez guilty of the charges against him.

Liverpool Football Club have released an astonishing statement in response to the eight match ban Luis Suarez has received for racially abusing Patrice Evra two months ago.

After Kenny Dalglish foolishly repeatedly defended their racist striker, the club had been left with little option to back Suarez.

Following today's draws in the European club competitions one can't help but feel that there could've been some tastier matches upon the horizon going into the knockout rounds of each competition. Nonetheless the teams that do remain in each tournament will have their eyes firmly focused on the big prize.

Difficult drawing for premiership teams didn't only happened in the Champions League but also in the second rate European competition, Europa League, where all three English representatives are being paired with tough sides.

Manchester United will be facing fellow Champions outcast, Ajax Amsterdam, while Manchester City are set to battle last season's champions Fc Porto and Stoke City got pretty much the toughest one with Valencia at sight.
