Chief among them was Paris Saint-Germain drawing 2-2 with Ludogorets, which coupled with Arsenal’s 4-0 win over FC Basel gave the Gunners the top spot in the group. It’s Arsenal’s first No. 1 finish in the group stage since 2011-12.

Here are the scores from Tuesday’s games.

Here’s a recap of the teams who have advanced to the Round of 16 of the tournament after Tuesday’s results (some teams clinched prior to Matchday 6).

  • Group Runner-up: PSG (A), Benfica (B), Manchester City (C), Bayern Munich (D)

Groups E, F, G and H will be finalized Wednesday. The best matchup is in Group F, where Borussia Dortmund and Real Madrid will battle for the top spot. Dortmund has a two-point edge through five games.
