Incredible! Alexander Sørloth wins it in 4-3 victory in Istanbul!

Sørloth scores winner for RBL in added time | Poulsen, Mukiele and Olmo on scoresheet for dominant Leipzig | Kahveci keeps his side in it with hat trick | RBL secure minimum third place finish | Upamecano suspended for next game

What a game! After a 4-3 victory away to Istanbul Basaksehir, RBL celebrate their third win of Group H thanks to a match winning goal from Alexander Sörloth.

The result was a close one, but Leipzig were the dominant side throughout the game and created a high amount of chances. Yussuf Poulsen deflected a long shot past the goalkeeper (26'), before Nordi Mukiele doubled the lead (42').

However, one man made RBL work for their victory: Irfan Can Kahveci. The midfielder cut Leipzig's two goal lead in half on two occassions (45.+2, 72.) before leveling the game at 3-3 (85'). Leipzig's third goal came through Dani Olmo (66'). Alexander Sörloth was the hero, finding the back of the net to put Leipzig ahead once again in the second minute of injury time.

It was a nervy game! However, RBL have guaranteed international football by securing at least third place in the group. Next up is Manchester United (kick-off: 21:00 CET) as Die Roten Bullen look to qualify for the Champions League knockout round!
