Real Madrid shockingly fell behind against Ajax at Santiago Bernabeu on Tuesday, and many were quick to take to social media to both express their disbelief and ridicule the defending champions.
The Dutch side entered Tuesday's match trailing, having been on the end of a 2-1 defeat in the first leg that certainly felt flattering to Madrid.

Still, Ajax opened the scoring in the seventh minute through Hachim Ziyech, who finished first-time to level the score at 2-2 on aggregate.
However, Real Madrid still had the advantage on away goals before Dusan Tadic helped create Ajax's second, spinning past Casemiro before setting up David Neres as Ajax took the lead.
With Neres' goal, Ajax took a 3-2 lead on aggregate within 18 minutes after dominating large portions of the first leg.
And while Ajax were easing past Real Madrid's backline, Twitter was quick to revel in and dissect the Spanish side's struggles.
18. JAAAAAA GOAAAAAAL!!!!

The reason why Ajax are cruising at Santiago Bernabeu is that Frenkie de Jong is playing at his future training ground.

Very charitable of Real Madrid to give Frenkie De Jong the grand tour of Barcelona's second home ground...
