In a match that defied belief, the Italian giants came from behind three times, with defender Lloyd Kelly redeeming himself in the final second to cap a stunning 4-4 draw with Borussia Dortmund.
In a breathtaking display of never-say-die spirit, Juventus staged a miraculous comeback not once, but three times, ultimately snatching a dramatic 4-4 draw against Borussia Dortmund with the very last touch of the game in a UEFA Champions League night that will be remembered for years to come.
After a surprisingly quiet first half, the floodgates burst open after the break in what quickly became an instant classic. Dortmund struck first through Karim Adeyemi, but that goal was merely the starter pistol for a frantic, end-to-end shooting gallery.
The Allianz Stadium was sent into a frenzy as young star Kenan Yildiz answered with a stunning curler, only for Felix Nmecha to silence the crowd moments later with a beautiful strike of his own. Juventus hit back again through Dusan Vlahovic, seemingly setting the stage for a grandstand finish.
The drama, however, was only just beginning. When Dortmund won a penalty and Ramy Bensebaini converted to make it 4-2 with minutes remaining, the game appeared to be over. But Juventus, fueled by sheer will, had other ideas.
Vlahovic sparked a glimmer of hope by poking home a close-range finish in the 93rd minute. Then, in the sixth and final minute of stoppage time, the script was flipped completely. The man who had given away the penalty, defender Lloyd Kelly, rose highest to meet a cross and powered a header into the net, sending the Turin crowd into a state of pure pandemonium and securing the most unlikely of points.
The result leaves both teams unbeaten this season, but the emotions could not have been more different. While Juventus will be celebrating a heroic escape, Dortmund manager Niko Kovac will be left utterly bewildered at how his team let a commanding lead slip through their fingers not just once, but on three separate occasions in a single, unforgettable half of football.
