Ajax to face Tottenham Hotspur in Champion League semi-final

Ajax will take on Tottenham Hotspur in the semi-finals of the Champions League. While the English club lost 4-3 to Manchester City on Wednesday, Tottenham still goes through to the semi-final based on away goals thanks to a 1-0 victory last week, NU.nl reports.

On Tuesday Ajax eliminated Juventus. The Amsterdam team won 1-2 in Turin, after a 1-1 draw in Amsterdam last week, and therefore made it to the semi finals for the first time in 22 years.

The first match between Ajax and Tottenham will be played in London on either Tuesday, April 30th, or Wednesday, May 1st. The return follows in the Johan Cruijff Arena in Amsterdam on either Tuesday, May 7th, or Wednesday, May 8th.
