Former Man United forward lashes out by SLAPPING camera after Ajax fall short in Dutch title race as manager breaks down in tears on the pitch

Wout Weghorst was clearly not in a good mood after his Ajax side fell agonisingly short in the Eredivisie title race on Sunday.

Goals from Weghorst and captain Jordan Henderson saw Ajax end the season by beating Twente 2-0 in Amsterdam.

But that was not enough to see them leapfrog leaders PSV Eindhoven, who sealed their second title in two years by winning 3-1 away at Sparta Rotterdam.

Ajax, who have not been champions of the Netherlands since the 2021-22 campaign, ended this season with 78 points, just one fewer than PSV.

After Sunday's finale, Ajax's players stood in a line on the pitch, with their arms around each other's shoulders, in front of their home supporters.
