Ajax fans let off fireworks and play loud music outside Real Madrid's hotel in the early hours of the morning

Spare a thought for Real Madrid's players as they take on Ajax on Wednesday in the first leg of their Champions League last-16 tie.

The Spanish champions had a disturbed night's sleep when a group of Ajax fans let off fireworks and played loud music right outside the team hotel at 3am on the morning of the match.

It appeared the whole idea was to cause as much chaos as possible around the hotel in Amsterdam.

Four people have reportedly been arrested.

It is the first time Ajax have reached the knockout stage of the Champions League in 13 years.
