Real Madrid rally for point behind imperious Casemiro showing

Real Madrid fought back from 2-0 down to draw 2-2 with Borussia Monchengladbach to avoid making it two defeats out of two in Champions League Group B and keep their hopes of qualifying for the knockout rounds alive.

Madrid played well for the opening half hour and Toni Kroos had a shot from distance well-saved by goalkeeper Yann Sommer but it was the German side who went ahead, Marcus Thuram scoring with their only shot of the first half.

The visitors looked to respond as Marco Asensio went close either side of half time.
