The Liga giants had to face a ruthless Ajax side without Ramos, who was slapped with a two-game ban by UEFA having deliberately collected a yellow card in the first leg.It was deemed to be an attempt to ensure a ban would not be hanging over him later in the competition.However, as a result, the centre-back would also have missed the first leg of their quarter-final if they had completed the job against Ajax – they went into the game 2-1 up.The thrashing to Ajax was Reals fourth defeat on the spin on home soil and rounded off a miserable week after losing to Barcelona in the Copa del Rey and La Liga.When asked if Ramos was missed, Real boss Solari told Spanish outlet Movistar: Of course. Without talking badly about any of our players, of course we missed our captain.Real Madrid missed Sergio Ramos’ leadership against Ajaxgetty3
