Tottenham’s hopes of lifting the Premier League title have well and truly faded following recent results, but Mauricio Pochettino’s side are still very much alive in the Champions League. They beat Borussia Dortmund home and away in last season’s group stage, and Spurs take a healthy lead to the Westfalenstadion after they ran out 3-0 winners at Wembley three weeks ago.

Second-half goals from Son Heung-Min, Jan Vertonghen and Fernando Llorente have left the Bundesliga table toppers with a mountain to climb. Follow live coverage of the second leg from Dortmund below.

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.

81 mins: Dortmund 0 - 1 Tottenham

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

Christian Eriksen makes way for Danny Rose.

Tottenham break with Aurier putting the ball into the box from the right, Lamela can't get on the end of it and Dortmund regain possession.

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.
