Add Real Madrid to the list of teams to fall victim to the play of Christian Pulisic.
After entering in the 72nd minute, Pulisic made an immediate impact, and would have scored a goal if not for a Keylor Navas save. With his team down, 2-1, Pulisic set up Dortmund’s equalizer, as his cross was blocked away towards Andre Schurrle, who rocketed home a shot to earn Dortmund a 2-2 tie. With the win, Dortmund is unbeaten in five matches across all competitions.
Wonderful work from Pulisic to set up Schurrle's unstoppable equalizer for Dortmund. #UCLonFOX https://t.co/JYkieVRcAS
