Haller joins Champions League hallowed ranks after securing Ajax's comeback win over Borussia Dortmund

Ajax striker Sebastian Haller has become the fifth player to score in his first four appearances in the Uefa Champions League.

Haller scored Ajax's second goal at Signal-Iduna Park in the 83rd minute as they completed a 3-1 victory over their German hosts on Wednesday.

The Ivorian star headed in Antony's cross after Dusan Tadic drew Erik ten Hag's men level in 72nd minute.

Their passage into the round of 16 was confirmed by Davy Klaassen's stoppage-time goal. It also stretched their dominance in Group C to 12 points after four games - six points above second-placed Dortmund and Sporting Lisbon.
