BEN STANSALL / AFP

Tottenham reached the last-16 of the UEFA Champions League in dramatic fashion.

Jose Mourinho’s men came back from two goals down to beat Olympiacos 4-2 in Group B.

The Premier League side are second in the pool behind Bayern Munich who thrashed Red Star Belgrade 6-0, thanks to four goals from Robert Lewandowski.

Paulo Dybala helped Juventus clinch top spot in Group D with a stunning free-kick goal in their 1-0 win against Atletico Madrid.

Bayer Leverkusen can still overtake Atletico, following their 2-0 victory over Lokomotiv Moscow who are now out of the competition.

Elsewhere, a 1-1 draw with Shakhtar Donetsk was enough to send Manchester City through to the next round as Group C winners, while Atalanta beat Dinamo Zagreb 2-0 to keep their hopes alive of finishing second.

In other games, Galatasaray drew 1-1 against Club Brugges in a dead rubber, while PSG top Group A after Kylian Mbappe and Pablo Sarabia struck inside the final 10 minutes to snatch a 2-2 draw at Real Madrid.
