Ajax's Eredivisie match with Groningen was abandoned after just nine minutes because fans of the relegated hosts threw fireworks on to the pitch twice.
The players were taken off in the sixth minute as smoke bombs were thrown before a fan ran on to the pitch with a banner calling for the Groningen board to resign.
Three minutes after the restart more fireworks were thrown.
The referee called the match off in line with new Dutch rules.
In a Dutch Cup semi-final between Feyenoord and Ajax last month, a lighter thrown from the crowd hit Ajax midfielder Davy Klaassen and cut his head.
The Dutch FA decided all games would be stopped if a player or official was hit by something from the crowd. It also said games would be temporarily stopped if a projectile is thrown that does not hit anybody, and If it happens a second time the game should be stopped.
It is the fourth Dutch Eredivisie match this weekend alone that was temporarily halted.
Missiles stop play again.

Sensible Swansea fans should discourage the bringing of flares to matches. It is not "a bit of fun". People spend a lot of time visiting games especially away from home. I have no idea if they are dangerous but read about someone getting burns which is not pleasant.
The stupidity of fans cannot be under estimated. A man was killed by an emergency flare at Cardiff Arms park at world cup match in 1993. He probably did not know what he was setting off. [Post edited 14 May 2023 22:27]

| Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.
