Despite coming up against the most successful team in the Champions League, Sheriff have made a statement against Real Madrid.
The visitors took the lead in the first half after Real Madrid’s backline gave Sheriff acres of space to set up a counter-attack.
A cross from Cristiano (ironically) set up a wide-open Jasurbek Yakhshiboev whose header beat Thibaut Courtois and left the hosts stunned.
And while Karim Benzema equalized from the penalty spot in the second half, Sheriff found a way to shock the hosts yet again!
Adama Traoré set up Sébastien Thill who put a stunning second goal past Courtois just before the 90-minute mark.
What a memorable night it’s been for the visitors.
