13' GOAL! Ajax 0-1 Bayern (Lewandowski)
BAYERN HAVE THE BREAKTHROUGH! 1-0! Ajax are caught ball watching in defence as Lewandowski runs across into acres of space where he's picked up by Gnabry, and the striker is never going to miss a chance like that as he beats Onana from 12 yards. Bayern take a big step towards winning the group!
61' GOAL! Ajax 1-1 Bayern (Tadić)
AJAX HAVE THEIR EQUALISER! 1-1! Simply stunning from Ajax following a string of one-touch passes! De Jong picks out Ziyech, who plays a stunning first-time ball over the top for Van de Beek who fizzes a delivery across the face of goal for Tadic to turn into the empty net!
67' Red Card! M. Wöber sent off
AJAX DOWN TO 10 MEN! Well that really puts a dent in their plans! It's sloppy, late and reckless from Wober who thought he could break up a counter but arrives late and dangerously hacks Goretzka to ground. It's a straight red and Ajax have a tough task ahead of them now.
75' Red Card! T. Müller sent off
THE PLAYING FIELD IS LEVEL! It was accidental by Muller, but horribly dangerous nonetheless as he gets a boot up into the head of Tagliafico, who has been cut open in the process! Muller can't be putting himself in that position. He sees red and hands Ajax a huge lifeline in the process!
82' Penalty Goal! Ajax 2-1 Bayern (Tadić)
SENSATIONAL PENALTY! AJAX LEAD FROM BEHIND! 2-1! The hosts have completely turned this match around on the back of a sensational showing in the second half. Tadic rifles his penalty into the top corner as Neuer didn't even move! Even if he guessed right he wasn't stopping that!
87' Penalty Goal! Ajax 2-2 Bayern (Lewandowski)
BAYERN BACK TOP OF GROUP E! Lewandowski stutters in his run up and that helps him send Onana the wrong way, rolling a perfect spot-kick just inside the post! Bayern are back on level terms and it's Ajax who need yet another response!
90' GOAL! Ajax 2-3 Bayern (Coman)
Another sloppy pass out from the back gifts Bayern possession as Thiago picks out Coman, who picks out the far corner! Bayern are going through as winners of Group E now, barring an incredibly late comeback from Ajax.
95' OWN GOAL! Ajax 3-3 Bayern (Tagliafico)
IT'S GAME ON AGAIN! Nicolás Tagliafico right footed shot from very close range to the centre of the goal. Assisted by Klaas-Jan Huntelaar following a set piece situation.
Match Report
Bayern Munich secured top spot in Champions League Group E despite letting victory slip away in injury time in an incredible 3-3 draw at Ajax.
Ajax went into Wednesday's clash at the Johan Cruijff ArenA needing a win to leapfrog Bayern, who went ahead through Robert Lewandowski in the 13th minute.
Dusan Tadic levelled just past the hour mark to set in motion an incredible second half, Ajax's Maximilian Wober and Bayern's Thomas Muller both shown straight red cards before a clumsy Jerome Boateng challenge gave Ajax an 82nd-minute penalty that Tadic converted.
However, Lewandowski levelled from the spot after Nicolas Tagliafico brought down Thiago Alcantara and Kingsley Coman – in his third game back from injury – bent in what looked to be a 90th-minute winner, only for a Niklas Sule own goal five minutes later to at least give Ajax a share of the spoils.

WHAT A GAME! We top the group but Ajax deserve the credit. They played with passion and motivation to win. 2 Red Cards 6 Goals!! Süle was a beast for Bayern, a little unlucky at the end but Boateng has been struggling, he really needs to up his game. I'd prefer a slower Hummels over a sluggish Boateng. Ribery gave the ball away too much. Gnabry was lighting it up early on. Lewandowski!!! What can you say about that man! Leading goal scorer in the UCL and in the top 5 leagues this season!! A shame he was left out of the Ballon d'Or top 30. Kovac made some good substitutions at the correct time. Super subs Coman and Thiago almost won it for Bayern coming 1-2 down to 3-2 lead in a matter of minutes! We topped the group and that's all that matters! Mia San Mia
