Antonio Rudiger was in good spirits despite suffering a bloody head injury during Real Madrid 's dramatic 1-1 draw with Shakhtar Donetsk in the Champions League.
The former Chelsea defender scored a 95th-minute equaliser for Los Blancos, shattering Shakhtar's hopes of a historic win. But it came at a cost for Rudiger, as a split-second after diverting Toni Kroos ' brilliant crossed ball towards goal, the 29-year-old slammed face-first into onrushing goalkeeper Anatolii Trubin with serious force.
Following a brief celebration - as the equalising goal sent Madrid through to the knockout stages - Rudiger's teammates rushed to his aid, much like 21-year-old Trubin's. While the Shakhtar stopper received treatment, the German centre-back was left with a gruesome gash and blood streaming from his face.
