Mönchengladbach missed a big surprise in the Champions League. Borussia conceded two goals against Real Madrid in the closing stages and played a draw against Real Madrid. It feels like a defeat.

Borussia Mönchengladbach just missed the sensation. Marco Rose’s team plays 2-2 (1-0) against Real Madrid in the Champions League. A few minutes before the end, Gladbach led against Los Blancos 2-0, but a strong final phase for Reals prevented the victory.

“Of course we are disappointed,” said goalkeeper Yann Sommer at Sky. “We played a good game, we took advantage of the weaknesses, the small ones, that Real have. Only in the final phase – we have to work on it. “

After the strong 2-2 at Inter Milan, Borussia also shone against Real. The Spaniards have their backs to the wall after the second matchday, as they lost their first game, a week ago they lost 3-2 at home to Donetsk. Across the seasons, Real has already played four games without a win in the Champions League.

Although Madrid had significantly more play in Gladbach, Borussia’s victory would have been deserved. The hosts simply played more effectively. Thuram took the first really good chance in the 33rd minute to take the lead. Plea staged the striker with a perfect pass. Thuram took the ball and pulled from twelve meters unsustainable for Real goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois.

Even after the break, Gladbach was the clever team. Again it was Thuram who met. The Frenchman was there when Courtois let a shot ricochet off Pleas and pushed the ball over the line to make it 2-0.

The equalizer in the 93rd minute

Real increased the pressure after conceding the second goal. Borussia managed to keep the Madrilenians away from their own goal for a long time. But in the 87th minute, Gladbach began to shake again when Karim Benzema scored 2-1 from close range.

Madrid proved that there is still great class in the team. Casimeiro equalized in the third minute of stoppage time after Sergio Ramos presented it.
