Vini Jr. scored the 1st goal in the match after Jude Bellingham’s assist in the 65th minute to give the lead to Los Blancos. However, the German side refused to give up, and only 3 minutes later, Willi Orban tied the result with his goal after David Raum’s assist.
After the goal, Leipzig played better, and in extra time, they had a golden chance to score and force extra time, but Dani Olmo’s shot hit the crossbar. The Bulls continued to seek a goal in the final seconds of the match, but the Spanish giants survived and will be among the last 8 teams remaining in the Champions League.
