RB Leipzig v Aston Villa live: UEFA Champions League latest as sub Ross Barkley hits dramatic late winner for Unai Emery's side in Germany

Ross Barkley came off the bench to score a late deflected winner as Aston Villa took a massive step towards automatic qualification for the UEFA Champions League knockout stage with a 3-2 win at RB Leipzig.

Villa twice led a breathless encounter in Germany via goals from captain John McGinn (3') and free-scoring substitute Jhon Duran (52'), only for Marco Rose's side to hit back in style against the Premier League visitors through Lois Openda (27') and Christoph Baumgartner (62').

But Unai Emery's side sealed a merited win on 85 minutes when Barkley saw a speculative effort take a huge deflection off Lukas Klostermann to nestle in the home net.

Villa move onto 13 points from six matches, third in the standings, but Leipzig's forgettable campaign is over after a sixth-straight defeat.

Villa on course for an automatic spot in the UEFA Champions League last 16, but for RB Leipzig the campaign is over after a sixth straight defeat.

Are we done with the scoring for the evening? Has been an unpredictable match, but looks like Villa might have squeezed out the three points.

Martinez forced to get down smart to make a fine stop from the Henrichs finish before he again stops from the Nusa shot after Rogers knocked into the side-netting on the break.

A fortunate goal as sub Barkley slips as he fires a shot at goal, but it takes a massive deflection off Klostermann before nestling in the home net. How lucky is that? But they all count.

Ian Maatsen replaces Lucas Digne and Ross Barkley is on for Youri Tielemans. Lukas Klostermann replaces Arthur Vermeeren for Leipzig.

Not sure what Pau Torres is doing. Gives the ball away under no pressure, but the Openda finish is straight into the arms of Martinez. He then drills the ball a yard or two over seconds later.

Benjamin Henrichs picks up a booking for complaining about a decision. Silly stuff.

Diego Carlos has been booked for a cynical late challenge on Baumgartner. Openda fires free-kick into the wall from 22 yards.

André Silva replaces Benjamin Sesko heading for the final 10 minutes.

McGinn is off the park to be replaced by Emiliano Buendia.

Looked offside that time, but should have released McGinn who was free in space. Play continues with Leipzig back in possession.

Digne with a powerful hit after some nice play by McGinn and Rogers, but the finish is nudged wide by Gulácsi on the dive. Super save.

Cash departs the action for the visitors to be replaced by Kosta Nedeljkovic.

Probably to keep warm on a cold night as much as anything else. A draw wouldn't be a bad result for Villa tonight, but perhaps not for top eight and automatic qualification for the knock-out stage.

Duran seems to do all is best work when he arrives from the bench.

The visitors must be wondering how they are not ahead in this match. A crowd of 40,406 turning out tonight.

Christoph Baumgartner with a stunning finish on the volley from the chipped pass by Openda. Only their second shot of the night, and they are level at 2-2.

What a fabulous finish from the Villa sub..

Excellent low finish by Duran from the Cash cross as Villa appear to move 3-1 clear, but VAR confirms Cash went too early before he provided the assist.
