Two goals from Karim Benzema gave the hosts in a the lead but they failed
to put the game to bed and were made to pay by Broussia Dortmond.
Karim Benzema reached 50 Champions League goals with a close-range finish and a header either side of half time – a double that appeared
to set Madrid on the path to victory.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang struck with his 19th goal of the season to give the visitors hope before Benzema was denied a hat-trick when
hero of the night Reus cleared his header off the
line.
Cristiano Ronaldo hit the post in the closing
stages but Madrid paid the price for their wastefulness when Reus converted Aubameyang's
pass in the final moments.
Therefore it is Madrid who will have to face a group winner in the last 16, with Arsenal and Juventus among their potential opponents.
