DORTMUND, Germany (AP) — Ajax has ground down a tenacious 10-man Borussia Dortmund team to win 3-1 and book its place in the Champions League knockout stages. Despite a first-half red card, Dortmund led the game until Dusan Tadic leveled the score for Ajax in the 72nd minute. Goals from Sébastien Haller and Davy Klaassen then gave Ajax the win.

Ajax has won all four of its games in Group C.
