Match Recap

Borussia Dortmund trailed for an hour before a burst of substitute magic turned this Champions League night around. Fábio Silva broke the deadlock just after the break, only for Real Betis' Aitor Ruibal to level things up in the 67th minute and threaten to spoil the party. Five minutes later, 18-year-old Konstantinos Karetsas settled it, snatching a 2-1 win for Dortmund at the death. The result does little to shift the bigger picture in the table: Betis arrived in sparkling form, three wins from three, and still sit seventh with nine points, while Dortmund's up-and-down form (WLW) leaves them down in 16th despite the three points banked here. For a Bundesliga side scrapping to climb a brutal European table, Karetsas' late strike is the kind of moment that changes a season's mood. Watch how the teenager finds the gap to beat the Betis defense and send the home fans into delirium.
