Ajax snatch late draw with Monaco
Kenneth Taylor opened the scoring for the hosts shortly before the half-hour mark by slotting in after a neat-one two with Davy Klaassen in the penalty area.
Mika Biereth drew Les Monégasques level just five minutes later in a similar position after Caio Henrique teed him up with a mazy dribble to the byline.
They finally took the lead midway through the second half when Takumi Minamino met Jordan Teze's cross after he had dispossessed Mika Godts.
But the last word belonged to John Heitinga's side, who saw Bertrand Traoré equalise by converting Owen Wijndal's cutback from the lefthand side.
Ajax kick off their Eredivisie campaign at home to Telstar on 10 August.

CeeDee Lamb takes big hit from sprinting official while WR is in street clothes on the sideline
INGLEWOOD, Calif. (AP) — CeeDee Lamb took a big hit and committed a penalty in the Dallas Cowboys' preseason opener — even though the star receiver wasn't playing. A sprinting official ran straight into Lamb's back when the four-time Pro Bowl receiver wandered too close to the field during the second quarter of the Cowboys' game against the Los Angeles Rams at SoFi Stadium on Saturday night, resulting in a 15-yard penalty to Dallas for making contact with an official. Dressed in street clothes, Lamb was watching Joe Milton's deep pass to Jonathan Mingo and signaling to his teammates while standing in the white paint on the edge of the sideline. The official was tracking the play while he ran, and he didn't see Lamb before he knocked down the wideout with a big hit to the back. Lamb got up with no apparent ill effects, laughing about the collision with his teammates. Dallas was still whistled for unsportsmanlike conduct, which took 15 yards off the Cowboys' 51-yard gain for Los Angeles defensive back Shaun Jolly's pass interference on Mingo. Lamb, Dak Prescott, George Pickens and most of the Cowboys' key players aren't participating in the preseason opener. ___ AP NFL:

Ceedee Lamb, in street clothes, hit with 15-yard penalty after getting trucked by official in Cowboys preseason opener
CeeDee Lamb got tackled and hit with a penalty on his day off. The Dallas Cowboys star wide receiver was assessed a 15-yard unsportsmanlike conduct penalty after getting hit by an official on the sidelines. Lamb had been standing on the sideline with his arm in the air to celebrate teammate Jonathan Mingo getting open when the official, who was running with his attention on the play, slammed into his back. [Join or create a Yahoo Fantasy Football league for the 2025 NFL season] The run-in was called a "foul against an official." Fortunately for Lamb, the official and everyone with stakes in Lamb, the Pro Bowler appeared to be fine after the impact and was even laughing with his friends on the sideline. The play also saw Mingo draw a defensive pass interference penalty from Los Angeles Rams cornerback Shaun Jolly for a 51-yard gain. The result was the Cowboys going from 3rd-and-16 at their own 26-yard line to 1st-and-25 at the Rams' 38-yard line. Lamb was in street clothes because the Cowboys opted to rest pretty much their entire starting offense for their preseason opener. He's coming off another Pro Bowl season with 1,1194 receiving yards and six touchdowns, but he'll be trying to bounce back toward his 1,749-yard peak in 2023.
