Tadic accuses referee of ‘destroying’ Ajax’s clash with Chelsea

The Serbian attacker was left livid with the officials after his side were reduced to nine men on Tuesday

Ajax attacker Dusan Tadic believes his side were robbed of victory in their dramatic 4-4 draw with Chelsea due to referee Gianluca Rocchi's 'destructive' performance.

The Dutch side were at one point leading 4-1 at Stamford Bridge on Tuesday but quickly found themselves level after Daley Blind and Joel Veltman were both sent off in the 68th minute.

Tadic struggled to comprehend the Italian referee's decision to give both players their marching orders and is adamant Ajax deserved reward for their overall performance.
