UCL: Haller scores as Ajax draw Benfica 2-2

Sebastien Haller kept up his remarkable scoring record in this season’s Champions League, finding the target at the right end shortly after putting through his own net as Ajax drew 2-2 with Benfica in their last 16, first leg on Wednesday.

Haller’s 26th-minute own goal cancelled out Dusan Tadic’s opener for the Dutch champions at the Estadio da Luz in Lisbon, but the Ivory Coast striker put Ajax back in front just three minutes later.

Ukraine international Roman Yaremchuk then came off the bench in the second half to earn Benfica a deserved draw.
