​LOAN WATCH: Man City forward Ambrose scores in NAC Breda and Chelsea-filled Vitesse clash

Manchester City forward Thierry Ambrose scored NAC Breda's solitary goal in their 4-1 defeat at the hands of Vitesse Arnhem.

The Eredivisie clash represented somewhat of a mini-Premier League match, considering the number of loan players that featured from Chelsea and Manchester City.

Chelsea's Fantaky Dabo started for Vitesse, while Matt Maigza came on as a substitute. Mukhtar Ali and Mason Mount did not feature, but were named on the bench.

NAC, on the other hand, had four Manchester City players in the starting XI, which included Ambrose, Manu Garcia, Angelino and Pablo Mari. Pablo Fernandes made an appearance as a substitute.

Vitesse were ahead 3 goals to nil before Ambrose dragged one back for his side. The French striker directed a wonderful header past Remko Pasveer to net his first competitive goal for NAC since joining on a season-long loan in July.
