AMSTERDAM (Reuters) - Thoughts of Abdelhak Nouri are never far away from Donny van de Beek, his best friend when the pair were breaking through to the Ajax Amsterdam first team three seasons ago.

So when Van de Beek scored in the 34th minute of Tuesday's Champions League victory at Juventus, his mind turned immediately to his former team mate, who suffered cardiac arrest during a pre-season friendly in Austria in July 2017.

The time of Tuesday's equaliser for Ajax in the second leg of their quarter-final tie was the same as the number Nouri wore on his Ajax shirt in his 15 appearances in his debut 2016-17 season. Ajax have since admitted to providing inadequate on-field medical treatment for Nouri. Van de Beek, who turns 22 on Thursday, still finds it difficult to address the issue.

Last year, the Dutch club said it had sought an external opinion during the incident and acted accordingly but further investigations showed that a defibrillator should have been used sooner in the treatment.
