Ajax recorded a 4-0 win over Rangers in a UEFA Champions League encounter at the Amsterdam Arena on Wednesday evening.

It was an unforgettable return to the competition for Rangers as they were picked apart by the hosts.

Edson Alvarez opened the scoring in the 17th minute before Steven Berghuis added the second goal just after the half-hour mark.

A minute later, Mohammed Kudus increased Ajax's lead to 3-0 going into the break.

Super Eagles defender Calvin Bassey made his Champions League debut for Ajax, and he marked it with an assist for his team's third goal and also helped them keep a clean sheet.
