Penalty drama after an insane start at the San Siro 😱 | OneFootball

Group F was rightly christened the Champions League ‘Group of Death’ this year and with PSG, Borussia Dortmund, Milan and Newcastle fighting it out you can see why.

Milan host Dortmund tonight where a win for the Bundesliga side would leave Stefano Pioli’s side in danger of elimination.

And it has been a crazy start to the game at the San Siro.

The Serie A side had a golden oportunity to take the lead after five minutes when an Emre Can handball allowed Milan the chance to score from the spot but Gregor Kobel produced heroics to deny Olivier Giroud.

It’s only the third time in the Frenchman’s career he has missed from 12 yards.

Dortmund only went up the other end and got their own penalty after Jamie Bynoe-Gittens was brought down and this time Marco Reus made no mistake.

It’s the first time since 2003/04 that two teams have been awarded penalties inside the opening 10 minutes in the competition.
