Mudryk saw the opportunity and produced a long ball but Rudiger was there to put it away. He’s proving to be a problem for the Shakhtar back four. Hazard got dispossessed on the right by Stepanenko, he sees Mudryk is non marked and produces a good through ball but Lunin gets there before Mudryk. Rodrygo loses the ball on the other half to Bondar, who finds a free Mudryk but Rudiger is there to dismiss any threat. Mendy sees Valverde in the middle and he finds a running Kroos. Benzema then makes a dangerous run towards the far post and tries a shot but Trubin saves it yet again! Zubkov to Murdyk and a backheel finds Zubkov again, he then finds Traore unmarked on the right and he races into the 6 yard box but Lunin with a crucial save! Valverde on the right gives a long ball to Mordic who links up to Mendy. The Frenchman tries a long range shot but it goes blazing past the crossbar. Kroos with an excellent long ball to Rudiger who heads the ball above Trubin and salvages a point for his side!!! Camavinga does well to find Benzema in the 16-yard box but Bondar puts his head to use and deflects it wide. Looks like Rudiger took a blow to his head during his heroics, he is off the pitch with a bloodied forehead.

We want it to end as soon as possible and for there to be peace in Ukraine," Lucas Vázquez said in Monday's press conference. The France international was rested against Getafe on Saturday. Tonight's game is in Warsaw. It's rising and catches him in the face, even worse than the head! A corner from the right is cleared by Rudiger and Rodrygo. It's a brilliant header at the back post and Zubkov opens the scoring for Shakhtar. They now have the lead in this Group F clash. Madrid's corner from the left falls to Benzema at the back post. Tchouameni is in acres of space 35 yards from goal. He chips it onto the bar. It is the Champions League and it is Real Madrid so you can never rule it out. Rudiger is up and walking but Trubin is still down.

Cristiano Ronaldo seems like the obvious player to put into the deal and Mbappe should fit far better in Erik ten Hag’s system. But with Bayern struggling (and Nagelsmann under pressure) they might think that a statement is needed. Perhaps a slight wildcard option here but if there are some pretty reputable German outlets reporting Bayern Munich’s interest in Harry Kane you have to think there would be interest in Mbappe. It feels as if Mbappe would love playing with Roberto Firmino, a lesser version of Benzema, but the Brazilian is out of contract in the summer, and where would that leave Darwin Nunez, Diogo Jota and Luis Diaz? They do also have Vinicius Jr and Karim Benzema in Mbappe’s favoured positions, but again that should be something they can work out. Despite a couple of key factors it still seems as if Madrid are the frontrunners for Mbappe.

Real Madrid have already made their decision surrounding Kylian Mbappe, who is looking for an exit from Paris Saint-Germain.

And Mbappe would be direct competition for the Brazilian, as it does not look like the Frenchman wants to play as a forward. The Frenchman had the option to choose and he did and what Los Blancos have done since then is stay out of everything that happens in Paris and build a team like the one they have right now and the French World Cup winner has no place in that. Yet, just a few months later and the future of Mbappe is a topic of discussion once again.

Spanish Giants Real Madrid are reportedly not interested in making a move for the unsettled Kylian Mbappe.

With them potentially out of the race for the Frenchman, clubs such as Liverpool may fancy their chances. That would be a colossal move, capable of boosting morale beyond belief for the reds.

Ancelotti and his players will have had an eye on Sunday's El Clasico in the build-up to the trip to Warsaw. That tactic got results and it means they will play Champions League knockout football once again in the new year. However, Antonio Rudiger put his head where it hurt as he nodded in a dramatic late equaliser, picking up a nasty blow to his face in the process.

Antonio Rudiger's goal deep in stoppage time helped Real Madrid salvage a 1-1 draw with Shakhtar Donetsk in the Champions League on Tuesday night.

The Ukrainians wasted no time in opening the scoring a minute after the restart. After Vinicius and Rudiger wasted chances to level the score, the German finally found a way through in the 95th minute. The goalkeeper managed to get a hand on the ball, only for it to pop back to Traore, who rushed his attempt and hit the top of the bar. A cross in from the left caught Ferland Mendy off guard, allowing Zubkov to header home at the far post to the delight of the home fans.

The Austrian’s versatility might be the key to getting all four of them enough playing time though, by rotating the former Bayern Munich star as a centre-back or as a left-back, depending upon the game and the situation. He is not quite a starter for Real Madrid at the moment, with the combination of David Alaba and Eder Militao appearing to be Carlo Ancelotti’s first choice pairing in the heart of defence. Rudiger has proven that he deserves bigger role at Real Madrid

The German defender came up big at the end of his side's Champions League match but ended up with a scary injury.

As a result, he had a bone injury on the side of his face and even wore a mask as a protective measure, continuing to wear it at Euro 2020 with Germany. The former Chelsea man got into the heart of the box and headed home off the right post with a delightful touch, but he paid the price. Rudiger had two chances, and his second was the charm.

WHAT HAPPENED? Rudiger scored a last minute equaliser against Shakhtar Donetsk to ensure Real Madrid remained undefeated in all competitions this season.

THE BIGGER PICTURE: The defender moved to Real Madrid as a free agent this summer and has been impressive ever since. The goal came with repercussions however, as the German defender sustained a cut which covered his shirt in blood, causing some distressing scenes. Rudiger scored a last minute equaliser against Shakhtar Donetsk to ensure Real Madrid remained undefeated in all competitions this season.

Antonio Rudiger sported the scars of a hard fought game, but his effort is said to have left him requiring 20 stitches.The Real Madrid defender was le.

“We have just got to keep going,” Postecoglou said. “Irrespective of whether we continue [in Europe] or not, we have two more Champions League games that we want to keep using as a platform to improve as a football team and improve our players. Celtic would need to beat Shakhtar and hope their rivals for third lose to Leipzig on gameweek six, though Ange Postecoglou must also find a way to get at least a point against Real Madrid at the Bernabeu on 2 November.

Carlo Ancelotti has refused to spark any debate over the potential transfer of Kylian Mbappe as he bluntly answered a question regarding the player.

WHAT NEXT FOR MBAPPE & REAL MADRID? The Spanish side have gone unbeaten in the league this season, and may not see Mbappe's signature as a necessity right now. The forward signed an extension in the French capital, turning down Madrid earlier this year, but a move could be back on following the latest news.

Real Madrid manager, Carlo Ancelotti, has reacted to the rumours linking Kylian Mbappe to a move to Santiago Bernabeu, once again.

Instead, Mbappe would end up extending his stint at PSG and agreed a bumper new deal. He was given a hero’s welcome by Real Madrid fans, when he played at the Santiago Bernabeu for PSG last season. We have already been through this saga once, when it was only considered a matter of time before the Frenchman arrived in the Spanish capital on a free transfer.

With Real Madrid and Barcelona tied for points at the top of LaLiga, will Dembele step up or will Vinicius make the difference in El Clasico?

He saw from the start that he wanted me to do more for the team, to be a more complete player." He tells me straight if he thinks I need to work on something and is totally clear in his feedback on my fitness and whether or not he's including me in the starting lineup. But, at this distance, it looks like Vinicius might be richly rewarded for the way in which he's been able to blend talent, magnificent athletic speed, learning and personal development towards the greater good of Real Madrid. Almost all of Dembele's coaches, most fans, and most of the media have been left in puzzled frustration as to why he doesn't develop or improve. It's important, in comparing the two, to see how representative each player is of the current state of their respective clubs. It's a collection of good players, some of them excellent, where the ball is shuttled forward in the hope that one of the special players will do something special. What's more, across the entire season so far he's only set up one goal for striker [Robert Lewandowski](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/125824/Robert-Lewandowski). In answer to the call, Vinicius has scored or assisted in all but two of Madrid's 12 matches this season. The World Cup-winning Frenchman followed up with just two assists and two goals in Barcelona's remaining 11 matches -- losing to Frankfurt and watching the 12-point gap between Xavi's team and Los Blancos that night in March stretch to 13 by the time the season finished.

Antonio Rudiger's reward for scoring Real Madrid's late equaliser was a brutal collision with Shakhtar's keeper that left him bandaged and bruised.
