Two late own goals on Tuesday saw Paris Saint-Germain and Ajax clinch the final two spots in the Women’s Champions League quarterfinals.
Earlier, Hacken beat Real Madrid 1-0 to sign for Barcelona, Benfica, Brann, Chelsea and Lyon, who secured the final eight spots heading into the final round of the organizational game.
PSG needed to avoid defeat to Bayern Munich to advance and came from behind twice to secure a 2-2 draw, helped when Georgia Stanway deflected a shot into her own net in the 88th minute.
Almost exactly at the same time in Amsterdam, Roma’s Zara Kramzar headed in her own goal to give Ajax a 2-1 win and a sensible place in Group C.
Bayern defender Stanway deflected a shot from Sandy Baltimore
Giulia Gwinn had put Bayern ahead in the first half.
Tabitha Chawinga equalised in the 73rd minute, but Sydney Lohmann restored Bayern’s lead two minutes later.
With two minutes left, England midfielder Stanway deflected Sandy Baltimore’s shot into her own net.
In four minutes Bayern had gone from group winners to elimination. For the first time in the history of the Women’s Champions League, there will be no German club in the last eight.
“They deserved much more, they won the game and advanced to the next round,” Bayern coach Alexander Straus told the club’s website.
“Two strong groups clashed. Maybe it was just a semi-final. In the end, the result is frustrating. “
Meanwhile, PSG who owned the group with losses to Ajax and Bayern, staged one last fightback to go through.
“It’s a wonderful achievement for us. We lost the first two games and didn’t start well, so to end the organization in the best way is a wonderful achievement,” PSG midfielder Jackie Groenen told UEFA. com.
“We weren’t there in the first half, but we controlled to fight in the second half. “
Ajax seized their chance to top the group when Kramzar put an Ajax corner into her own net.
“The main goal is to focus on ourselves,” said Ajax midfielder Lily Yohannes (16).
“But I heard someone say that Bayern were ahead just before the corner. That’s incredible. “
In Madrid, forward Rosa Kafaji, 20, headed into the top of the net after an hour to give Hacken victory.
Swedish club finished second, Group D winners Chelsea, who ended Paris FC’s hopes with a 4-0 defeat in the French capital on Tuesday.
Hacken would have managed to take second position if he had lost and Paris had won.
“We were smart today; we played pretty smart,” Mak Lind, the Hacken coach, told UEFA.com.
“We did it ourselves; We didn’t want any of them to qualify and I’m very proud of that.
“Not many people believed we could qualify before this organisational level and we’re showing other people that we can play very smart football. “
The organizational level ends on Wednesday with 4 matches and still the two qualifiers of the two teams are decided.
