A frantic finish unfolded at the Bernabéu when Real Madrid defender Dean Huijsen was shown a straight red card in the sixth minute of added time for a foul inside the area. The dismissal left the Spanish side with ten men and handed Borussia Dortmund a late penalty. Dortmund forward Serhou Guirassy duly converted from the spot, trimming Madrid’s lead to 3–2 after the home side had been two goals clear moments earlier. The late strike set up a tense conclusion to the match, which was still in stoppage time when the incident occurred.
