Ajax lost the first leg at home 2-1 and were desperate to make amends in Germany.
But they ended up shipping three goals in the first 67 minutes as travelling fans suffered a miserable evening.
However, Rugani gave them something to be proud about with a brave piece of play.
The Italian is on loan at Ajax from Juventus.
And he showed his dedication to the cause by taking a big knock to the head while organising the defence.
