By db-admin

DBasia.news –  Shocking results occurred on Wednesday (2/10) WIB, involving Real Madrid and Tottenham Hotspur in the continuing Champions League match. Real Madrid played host to club Brugge and Tottenham were beaten 2-1 by Bayern Munich.

Winner of 13 Champions League titles, Real Madrid, surprisingly failed to win against the Belgian club, Club Brugge, and ended the match with a 2-2 draw at the Santiago Bernabeu. Worse yet, the host were even left behind 0-2 from Emmanuel Bonaventure’s two goals in the 9th and 39th minutes.

Madrid only scored two equalizing goals in the second half through Sergio Ramos (55 ‘) and Casemiro (85’). Brugge also played with 10 players since Ruud Vormer was given a red card in the 84th minute.

As a result, Madrid failed to win in their two consecutive Champions League group A matches. Currently they are at the bottom of the standings with one point behind PSG (Paris Saint-Germain – six points), Brugge (two points) and Galatasaray (one point).

A no less surprising results occurred at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Hosting the Bavarian Giant, Bayern Munich, the hosts were crushed with a landslide score of 2-7 through Joshua Kimmich (15 ‘), two goals from Robert Lewandowski (45’ and 87 ‘), and four goals by Serge Gnabry (53’, 55 ‘, 83 ‘, 88’).

Tottenham were only able to respond through Son Heung-min’s goal (12 ‘) and Harry Kane’s penalty on the 61st minute. The defeat added the pressure for Tottenham coach, Mauricio Pochettino. Tottenham, despite having three new players, have played very inconsistently this season.

The Spurs are currently ranked third in group B with one point, ahead of Olympiacos (one point), and below Bayern Munich (six points) and Red Star Belgrade (three points).

Here are the results of the second Champions League group match that has taken place:

Atalanta 1-2 Shakhtar Donetsk

Manchester City 2-0 Dinamo Zagreb

Red Star Belgrade 3-1 Olympiacos
