AMSTERDAM (AP) — The Dutch Cup final between rivals Ajax Amsterdam and Feyenoord Rotterdam will be played over two legs and only home fans allowed attend, a decision made after threats of violence appeared on Web sites.
The final had been scheduled for Rotterdam’s De Kuip stadium on April 25, and soccer authorities and police had agreed to suspend a five-year travel ban on both team’s fans for the game. The ban had been imposed last year after a series of violent confrontations.
The two-leg final will now be played April 25 in Amsterdam and May 6 in Rotterdam.
