Ryan Babel looked to have given the visitors a much-needed victory at Stade Gerland as he fired home a stunning strike with seven minutes to go, but Lisandro Lopez burst through to make it 1-1 and ensure his side progress.

In the other game in Group E, Fiorentina look well-placed to join Lyon in the knockout stages as they thrashed Hungary's Debrecen 5-2 at home. Adrian Mutu set them on their way in the 14th minute and, while Gergely Rudolph levelled on 38 minutes, Dario Dainelli, Ricardo Montolivo and Marco Marchionni made it 4-1 with three goals in nine minutes early in the second half. Adamo Coulibaly threatened a comeback with a header to make it 4-2 in the 70th minute, but Alberto Gilardino completed the scoring shortly afterwards.
