THE match of the night on Tuesday came at Signal Iduna Park, where the returning Marco Reus inspired Borussia Dortmund to an exciting 8-4 victory over Legia Warsaw - the highest-scoring aggregate Champions League score.
Fit-again Reus bagged a hat-trick, Shinji Kagawa netted a brace and further goals from Nuri Sahin, Ousmane Dembele and Felix Passlack created a remarkable game. Aleksandar Prijovic scored twice for the visitors, including the opener before Dortmund hit back with three goals in as many minutes, while Michal Kucharczyk and Nemanja Nikolic also found the net.
Karim Benzema netted a late winner as Real Madrid qualified with a 2-1 win over Sporting Lisbon at the Estadio Jose Alvalade. Benzema cropped up in the 87th minute to kill off Sporting who, despite having Joao Pereira sent off, had cancelled out Raphael Varane's opener through Adrien Silva's penalty.
Leonardo Bonucci and Mario Mandzukic netted late goals to give Juventus a 3-1 victory over Sevilla and seal qualification at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan. Nicolas Pareja volleyed the home side ahead early on but, after Franco Vazquez was sent-off, Juventus responded through Claudio Marchisio, Bonucci and Mandzukic.
Sevilla sit three points clear of third-placed Lyon, who won 1-0 away at Dinamo Zagreb thanks to Alexandre Lacazette's 72nd-minute effort.
