Hello and welcome to LIVE updates of the Champions League quarter final, second leg between Juventus and Ajax in Turin. The tie is finely poised following the 1-1 draw in the first leg in Amsterdam. The Dutch side dominated for long spells but fell behind to a superb Cristiano Ronaldo header on the stroke of half time. However, Ajax deservedly levelled straight after the restart through David Neres. Who will claim that much-coveted semi final berth and a clash with Manchester City or Tottenham? We’ll soon find out - kick off 20:00 BST.

Federico Bernarderschi escapes his man and jinks towards the area from the right. He looks to slip Ronaldo in as he's faced by two defenders, but his pass towards Juve's main man is overhit.
