Phew! What a game that was! Dortmund were better in the first half, Madrid in the second, and the 2-2 scoreline reflects the balance of play very nicely. Anyway, thanks for your company - night-night.

FULL-TIME: Borussia Dortmund 2-2 Real Madrid
90+3'

The ball comes into the Madrid box and Mor attacks it, chucking a boot at Navas once he's gathered, and a brief period of shoving occurs. Aubameyang is booked for no apparent reason.
90+2
Morata pulls left and curves a low cross that's missed by Ginter and then Schmelzer - but he manages to insert a fibre of boot at the last minute, taking the ball away from Bale.
90+1
Modric wanders through midfield and lifts a ball over the top for Morata, but Sokratis just manages to grow sufficient inches to head clear.
90+1'
There shall be three added minutes.

Enjoy whatever's left of this, because this doesn't happen often.

WHAT A GOAL! Borussia Dortmud 2-2 Real Madrid (Schurrle, obviously). This is so, so good! Pulisic nashes down the right and crosses towards Aubameyang in the middle. He throws up legs for an overhead kick and they're probably a bit high, looking all the more so when Carvajal mindlessly jumps in front of them. Both miss the ball, and then Schurrle leathers across it, sending a rising drive literally screaming into the roof of the net.
87'
Schurrle appears to be limping.
86'
Incidentally, Son, who's on a right old buzz at the moment, has given Spurs the lead in Moscow.
85'
Dortmund are right back into this now, and Ramos knocks Mor over for no reason other than he wants to - he's lucky to escape a second yellow card.

But here come Dortmund! Ramos allows himself to be sucked in and Pulisic streaks away down the right. He larrups a cross-shot as best he can, but the angle is too tight for it to seriously threaten Navas, who bumps it back into play nonetheless and Carvajal does superbly to spirit the ball away from Schurrle.
81'
Madrid are in control now, to the extent that either of these teams can control one another. Bale turns and sprays an excellent ball for Ronaldo, now on the right, and though he's free he can't quite work his body position to find a comfortable shooting angle, so ends up swiping over the bar.
79'
Ronaldo turns Schmelzer inside out and slams in a shot towardsw the near post that Burki pushes behind. The corner comes to nothing.

Dortmund just have the most obscene squad. Mor replaces Guerreiro.

Guerreiro heads into the path of Modric, who races onto the ball and has Kroos alongside him. All it needs is a pass into space and he's in but Guerreiro is having no such thing, administering the foul and taking the booking.
75'
Lovely from Dortmund, Weigl slapping a long, low pass into Guerreiro, who flicked around the corner first time for Schurrle. Though it took him quite wide, and though Aubameyang was in the middle, he went for goal, shooting low and hard - Navas pushed it clear.

Dortmund lose the ball and Madrid spring forward with four men, Modrid carrying the ball, so Weigl pulls him down and is booked. The reason there weren't any yellow cards in the first half is that there didn't need to be.
73'
Another change for Dortmund: the superbly talented Pulisic comes on for the supremely talented Dembele.
