Jorginho scored two penalties as Chelsea came roaring back from 4-1 down to draw 4-4 with nine-man Ajax in a Champions League classic on Tuesday, while holder Liverpool claimed a narrow victory over Genk and a stuttering Barcelona was held by Slavia Prague.
There was also a rousing comeback win for Borussia Dortmund over Inter Milan and a big success for Valencia, but the greatest drama came at Stamford Bridge.
Ajax appeared to be heading for a stunning victory when Hakim Ziyech set up Donny van de Beek to put it 4-1 ahead 10 minutes into the second half.
Before that, Jorginho quickly levelled from the spot after Tammy Abraham’s own goal gave a second-minute lead for Ajax followed by a Quincy Promes header and a Kepa Arrizabalaga own goal to make it 3-1 at the break.
