Kevin Volland gave the unbeaten German outfit an early lead as a place in the knockout rounds beckoned, only for Bibras Natcho to convert from 12 yards to force a draw

CSKA Moscow snatched a second-half equaliser to hold Bayer Leverkusen to a 1-1 draw on Tuesday and hand a boost to Champions League Group E rivals Tottenham and Monaco.

Kevin Volland's first-half strike looked to have sealed all three points for the visitors at Arena CSKA, but a penalty from Bibras Natcho denied them a victory and kept alive third-placed Tottenham's hopes of reaching the last 16.
