UEFA Champions League round of 16 draw

Real Madrid are looking to bounce back from their domestic struggles by beating Ajax to reach the quarter-finals of the Champions League.

Successive clasico defeats at the Bernabeu have seen Real knocked out of the Copa del Rey and slip to third in La Liga, 12 points behind leaders Barcelona.

Ajax are top of the Eredivisie and full of goals this season, but they face an uphill task having lost 2-1 in the first leg in Amsterdam. Follow it live:

78 mins: Dortmund 0 - 1 Tottenham

Vertonghen puts the ball out for a corner, Aurier heads it clear whenthe ball comes in and Dortmund look all out of ideas. It hasn't been pretty from Spurs but their defence has been rock solid over the two legs.

Ben Davies makes an enterprising run into Dortmund's box, Erik Lamela tries to play him in but Burki makes an easy interception.

87 mins: Dortmund 0 - 1 Tottenham

Alcacer gets in and shoots but Lloris saves it again. 

There's nothing left but the chants from the crowd. Dortmund are spent, there's no pace or energy and they're waiting for the final whistle.

They can't break through this defence.

90 mins: Dortmund 0 - 1 Tottenham (0-4 agg)

Two perfect legs for Tottenham and they breeze into the quarter-finals of the Champions League. To keep a clean sheet away to Borussia Dortmund is no easy task and they purt everything behind the ball and were rewarded.

Real Madrid 1 - 4 Ajax (3-5 agg)

A stellar 90 minutes for Ajax puts them into the quarter-finals for the first time in 16 years. They were superb tonight and have decimated Real Madrid at home. The Champions League holders were shocked, embarrassed and very poor tonight as Ajax leave with the spoils.
