As the game reached the final ten minutes, a Wolfsburg fan ran on to the pitch and made the security chase him for a good 100 metres but Marcelo didn’t seem entertained one bit. He and his teammates had a night to forget in Germany. They were outclassed in every single department.

A host of Wolfburg’s players were in the mood to show their real quality. Goal scorer, Maximilian Arnold had a splendid night and has given his side a real chance at a semi final spot. The twenty one year old put in a memorable performance and bossed the midfield.

On one of the rare occasions that Madrid looked dangerous on the counter, he ran a good seventy yards to dispose a Madrid player off the ball. Ronaldo and Benzema were wasteful and should have reduced the deficit. The visitors as a unit looked tired and depleted. They’ll need to consider the second leg as yet another El Clasico if they need to progress this time around.
