Despite a phenomenal night from Mattia Perin, Juventus was stunned by a powerful Stuttgart team that won 0-1 as visitors, though the scoreline could have been much higher.

The Germans were vastly superior to their opponent but found Perin to be an impenetrable wall. They made 22 shots, ten on target, but the Italian goalkeeper, filling in for the suspended Michele Di Gregorio, repeatedly denied them. <\/strong>

Deniz Undav scored a goal in the 50th minute, but it was ruled out by VAR due to a handball by the forward. That didn\u2019t stop Stuttgart, who kept pressing, only to be met by Perin again and again.

In the 83rd minute, a foul by Danilo in the box led to a VAR review, resulting in a penalty and a second yellow card for the Brazilian, meaning a red card. Enzo Millot stepped up to take the penalty, but once more, Perin made a stunning save, diving to the side to keep Juventus in the game.

However, in the final moments, at 90+2,\u2019 Perin couldn\u2019t stop a strike from El Bilal Tour\u00e9 from inside the box, securing the win for the Germans and delivering a huge upset this week. That was their first victory, placing them 18th with four points. Juventus sits 14th with six. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Real Madrid demonstrated why they are the team that has won the Champions League <\/a>the most, showing their unique mentality in this competition. They were losing 0-2 to Borussia Dortmund but scored five goals in the last 30 minutes to win 5-2.

The Germans had a great start and seemed poised to get some revenge for last year’s final. Just after the half-hour mark, they scored their two goals. First, it was Donyell Malen after a great team play and an excellent pass from Serhou Guirassy, followed by Jamie Gittens, sliding in to connect with a cross from Malen. Dortmund led 0-2 at halftime.

In the second half, Madrid kept pushing, but couldn\u2019t get a goal back until the 60th minute when Antonio R\u00fcdiger headed in from a Kylian Mbapp\u00e9 cross. Just two minutes later, Vin\u00edcius equalized, finishing alone after the German defense had cleared the ball just as Mbapp\u00e9 was about to shoot.

For 20 more minutes, it stayed level until Lucas V\u00e1zquez struck a powerful shot in the 83rd minute to complete the comeback, but the drama didn\u2019t stop there. Three minutes later, a blistering run from Vin\u00edcius ended with a stunning goal from the Brazilian, who would complete his hat trick in stoppage time with a brilliant solo effort inside the box and an excellent finish.

With this victory, Dortmund lost their perfect record, and Real Madrid caught up with them in the standings, now with six points. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another big surprise took place in France, where the tenacious Brest managed to draw 1-1 with Bayer Leverkusen, keeping both teams undefeated and reaching seven points.

The Germans took the lead in the 24th minute after Jonas Hofmann made a through ball to Florian Wirtz, and the young player finished brilliantly.

The equalizer came in the 39th minute with an acrobatic shot from Pierre Lees Melou from the edge of the box, impossible for goalkeeper Matej Kovar to stop.

Both teams had their chances in the second half, and judging by how the home crowd celebrated, it seems both are happy with the result.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Liverpool secured a great victory in Germany by defeating Leipzig 0-1 with a goal from Uruguayan Darwin N\u00fa\u00f1ez.

Red Bull started strong and played a great match, but they were met by Caoimhin Kelleher, the standout of the night, despite a mistake that almost led to a goal from Benjamin Sesko. Leipzig even had two goals disallowed for offside, both by Lo\u00efs Openda. <\/strong>

The English side also had their chances, and in one of the first, they scored the match’s only goal in the 27th minute, after a header from Mohamed Salah that N\u00fa\u00f1ez tapped in. The Reds continued to create opportunities, but P\u00e9ter Gul\u00e1csi and the post kept them at bay.

With this result, the Reds are at the top of the table and, along with Aston Villa, remain the only team with a perfect record. Meanwhile, Leipzig is concerned, having lost all three matches, two of them at home. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
