In-form Haller keeps Ajax unbeaten, Inter held at Shakhtar

Haller, who joined the Dutch league holders from West Ham in January, kneed home his effort just before the break after midfielder Steven Berghuis had opened the scoring at the Johan Cruyff ArenA. The 27-year-old's efforts this term have helped Erik ten Hag's side to the summit of the Eredivisie. They are also three points clear of Borussia Dortmund in Europe, with the Germans hosting Sporting Lisbon later.

Netherlands playmaker Berghuis opened the scoring, and claimed his second goal of the season, after 17 minutes as he made the most of some questionable Turkish marking in the box before firing home. Haller's contribution came two minutes before half-time as with an unorthodox finish from a swinging Berghuis cross.

Elsewhere, Serie A champions Inter Milan remain winless in Europe this season following the 0-0 draw at Shakhtar Donetsk. Ukrainian Oleksandr Usyk was a spectator in Kiev days after beating Anthony Joshua on points to become just the third boxer after Evander Holyfield of the United States and Britain's David Haye to win both the cruiserweight and heavyweight world titles

The home team's attacker Lassina Traore was stretchered off after 11 minutes following a collision with Netherlands winger Dumfries. Burkina Faso international's right leg and ankle were caught under Dumfries' body before the 20-year-old was helped off the pitch with his hands covering his face. He was replaced by Tete.

The best of the first half chances fell to Nicolo Barella as the Inter midfielder hit the crossbar with a shot after a quarter of an hour. Inter were inches away from the winner with three minutes left as Shakhtar goalkeeper and captain Andriy Pyatov tipped Joaquin Correa's curling shot past the post.

Inter are third, with Shakhtar bottom before leaders Sheriff Tiraspol, making their maiden appearance in the tournament, play at 13-time winners Real Madrid.

The pick of the late ties pits May's runners up Manchester City against Paris Saint-Germain with Parisians starting at home with an attacking trio of Lionel Messi, Neymar and Kylian Mbappe in a re-match of last season's semi-final.
