The robbers tried to snatch a luxury watch from the 33-year-old footballer’s hand. The Serbian captain fought back, opening the visor of one of the men’s helmet and hitting him in the face with an open palm. According to De Telegraaf, Tadič was fortunately only slightly wounded in the hand during the attack.

In any case, the attack did not spoil the start of the season for Tadič. The Ajax captain led his team to a 3-2 win in the opening round of the Dutch Eredivisie at Sittard last weekend.
