The Moroccan attacking midfielder was part of the team that lost one of the most dramatic European ties of all time in 2019
New Chelsea signing Hakim Ziyech has been urged to seek “revenge” on Tottenham for his old club Ajax.
The Morocco star admitted the “crazy” away-goals defeat in the 2019 Champions League semi-final to Spurs was still “painful”.
The Dutch side won the first leg and went two goals up in the return when Ziyech scored before Lucas Moura netted a late hat-trick to send the North London side to the final.
And Ziyech, who joined the West London club this summer in a £33m deal, said he has been driven on by the memory of the defeat – and told to seek redress against a local rival.

“What can I say about that?” said the £33m summer signing. “A child's dream was stolen. It is hard, it is painful. It is crazy what happened at that time at that point. It is hard to accept.
“For me personally I think we deserved to go to the final but in the end you don't always get what you deserve. You have to take that as a lesson and I did. Now I know always that the game is not over until the referee whistles.
“It helped me improve, to never give up. And people, even in Holland, they say: 'Now you can take revenge on Tottenham'. But as a player you always want to win, it doesn't matter who it is. Even if it is Tottenham or whoever, you just want to win the game.”
Ziyech, 27, also lost the 2017 Europa League final to Manchester United and now wants to win European titles with Chelsea.

Dutch assistant coach Van Basten branded Ziyech “stupid” when he opted to play for Morocco instead of the Netherlands.
The former Milan star looked less clever when the Netherlands failed to qualify for the 2018 World Cup and Morocco went to Russia.
“At the end of the day it’s my life it’s not his,” said Ziyech. “That was just the way I was looking at it and I am not afraid to have my opinion and I always speak from my heart and what I am feeling I am just saying. I don’t really care what people think about.”

Ziyech, who learned his skills in the street and prefers playing as a No.10, added: “Things that happened in the past when I was younger, all this stuff when you're playing on the streets, it makes you hard as a person.”
The Morocco star was signed in February but a knee injury has limited him so far to two appearances off the bench. “The season is still long, there are still a lot of games,” he said.

thedailymirror--2020-10-23--Coronavirus R rate highest in South West despite fall to highs of 1.4 across UK

The UK 's coronavirus R number has dipped slightly to to 1.2-1.4 according to new estimates from the Government 's scientific advisers .
The reproduction `` R '' number has fallen slightly and there might have been a slowdown in the daily growth rate , government scientists said- implying the spread of infections could be levelling off .
The location with the highest R rate is now the south west of England - one of the shrinking numbers of areas without toughened Tier restrictions .
The Scientific Advisory Group for Emergencies ( Sage ) said the R across the UK @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 3 % to 6 % a day , and warned growth still remains 'almost certainly exponential ' .
England 's figures showed dips almosmt everywhere across the board as millions are plunged under Tier 2 and Tier 3 restrictions .
The scientific group said in a statement : `` SAGE is almost certain that the epidemic continues to grow exponentially across the country .
`` R values for the UK and every region of England remain above 1.0 and growth rates are all positive , so infections continue to grow . ''
The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ West of England , which remains in Tier 1 of the government 's lockdown system .
The region , which has been less hard-hit by the virus throughout the pandemic , is recording a rate of 1.3 to 1.6 .
That puts it above the England average , and with a growth rate of 5 % to 9 % daily .
The south east of England follows it in the tables - recording a rate of 1.2 to 1.5 with a growth rate of 4 % to 7 % daily .
The R @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the North West and North East of England , and Yorkshire - all areas subject to tiered restrictions , as well as the Midlands .
The R is at 1.1-1.3 in those areas , according to the latest figures .
An R number between 1.2 and 1.4 means that on average every 10 people with coronavirus will infect between 12 and 14 other people .
A growth rate between 3 % and 6 % means the number of new infections is growing by somewhere in that range a day .
It was 1.3-1.5 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at a rate of around 4 % to 7 % each day .
The ' R ' measures the transmission of the virus , and explains how many people each person who catches Covid-19 goes on to infect .

The value has been at that level or above since late August .
The UK 's overall death toll yesterday rose by 189 - with a further 21,242 cases confirmed .
The updated figures for Friday will be released @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the latest area of England to be set for Tier 3 restrictions , which will take effect next Thursday .

All or part of Nottinghamshire could enter Tier 3 within days as talks ramp up between local leaders and the government .

The Scientific Advisory Group for Emergencies (Sage) said the R now had a growth rate range of 3% to 6% a day and every 10 people with Covid-19 will go on to infect another 12 to 14 people
Coronavirus R rate highest in South West despite falling to highs of 1.4 across UK
The UK's coronavirus R number has dipped slightly to to 1.2-1.4 according to new estimates from the Government's scientific advisers.
The reproduction "R" number has fallen slightly and there might have been a slowdown in the daily growth rate, government
scientists said- implying the spread of infections could be levelling off.
The location with the highest R rate is now the south west of England - one of the shrinking numbers of areas without toughened Tier restrictions.
The Scientific Advisory Group for Emergencies (Sage) said the R across the UK now had a growth rate range of 3% to 6% a day, and warned growth still remains 'almost certainly exponential'.
England's figures showed dips almosmt everywhere across the board as millions are plunged under Tier 2 and Tier 3 restrictions.
The scientific group said in a statement: "SAGE is almost certain that the epidemic continues to grow exponentially across the country.
"R values for the UK and every region of England remain above 1.0 and growth rates are all positive, so infections continue to grow."
The R rate is highest in the South West of England, which remains in Tier 1 of the government's lockdown system.
The region, which has been less hard-hit by the virus throughout the pandemic, is recording a rate of 1.3 to 1.6.
That puts it above the England average, and with a growth rate of 5% to 9% daily.
The south east of England follows it in the tables - recording a rate of 1.2 to 1.5 with a growth rate of 4% to 7% daily.

The R rate is now lowest in London, the North West and North East of England, and Yorkshire - all areas subject to tiered restrictions, as well as the Midlands.
The R is at 1.1-1.3 in those areas, according to the latest figures.
An R number between 1.2 and 1.4 means that on average every 10 people with coronavirus will infect between 12 and 14 other people.
A growth rate between 3% and 6% means the number of new infections is growing by somewhere in that range a day.
It was 1.3-1.5 a week ago, and was growing at a rate of around 4% to 7% each day.
The 'R' measures the transmission of the virus, and explains how many people each person who catches Covid-19 goes on to infect.
Any R rate above 1.0 means that the pandemic is growing in the UK.

The value has been at that level or above since late August.
The UK's overall death toll yesterday rose by 189 - with a further 21,242 cases confirmed.
The updated figures for Friday will be released later.
Earlier today, Warrington became the latest area of England to be set for Tier 3 restrictions, which will take effect next Thursday.

It joins Greater Manchester, which moved into Tier 3, the highest alert level, on Friday morning, joining Lancashire and Liverpool City Region.
Wales goes into a fresh lockdown at 6pm tonight.
And South Yorkshire will enter Tier 3 at 12.01am Saturday.

Ozil looks to have played his last game for the club and his agent has hit out at the way he has been treated by his manager
Mesut Ozil's agent Dr. Erkut Sogut has hit out at Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta for the way he has dealt with the situation with his client in recent months.
And he has also made reference to the twilight of Arteta's playing career at the Gunners and the sharp contrast it has with that of Ozil's seemingly inevitable final months at the club.
Ozil has not played for Arsenal since March, and has been left out of their Premier League and Europa League squads for this season.
Arteta, on the other hand, also barely featured for the Gunners in his last campaign at the Emirates but was still included in the squad and got an emotional send-off when he came on as a substitute on the last day of the season.

Speaking to ESPN, Sogut stated his belief that it is not fair how Arteta's final months at the club were much happier than Ozil's look set to be.
"He started zero games in the Premier League in his last season," said Sogut of Arteta.
"He wasn't there in the last six months at all, busy doing his coaching badges and meeting coaches for his future.
"Mesut plays for one English team and that's it because he feels he can only play for that team. He is a Gunner in the end.
"Mesut is not a player who is yesterday a Toffee and today a Gunner. Arteta didn't play at all in the final two years, but they still registered him because he was given a contract.
"Arsene Wenger put him on the field for the final two minutes of his last game just to give him a nice moment, even though he wasn't fit for months.
