Real Madrid managed to qualify for the knockout stages of the UEFA Champions League with two games to spare in the group stage, thanks to a late winner from Antonio Rudiger, who showed incredible bravery on the night and did not come out of the game unscathed.

Shakhtar went ahead one minute into the second half in Warsaw when Bogdan  Mykhaylychenko found Oleksandr Zubkov unmarked in Real's box and the midfielder nodded home into the bottom right corner.

However, Rudiger levelled five minutes into stoppage time by taking advantage of a neat pass from midfielder Toni Kroos to deny Shakhtar a famous victory.
