    56'
    Huge roars as Coentrao allows the ball to roll under his foot and out for a throw to the home team. Has the 12th man got into the Real players' heads?
    55'
    All eyes turning to the Real Madrid bench. Is it Ronaldo time yet?
    54'
    It's gone a bit scrappy out there. The next goal is obviously very key.
    53'
    Dortmund attack down the right once more, but this time Pepe manages to untangle his own feet and clip the ball down field.
    52'
    Alonso somehow gets away with it. That should have been a second yellow. Huge boos ringing out around the stadium after the referee opted to keep his cards in his pocket.
    51'
    Alonso brings down Mkhitaryan. The Spaniard has already been booked...
    50'
    The Real attack continues and Di Maria cuts in from the right but drills his shot just over the top.
    49'
    Chance for Bale who fizzes in a shot... good save Weidenfeller.
    48'
    Are German stoppers the masters at penalties? Opta Jose thinks so and history wouldn't argue.

    REAL sub: Isco on for Asier Illarramendi.

    KICK OFF! Dortmund restart the game with their dream of pulling off a minor miracle very much alive. One more goal will level it on aggregate - but if Real score, the hosts would need five!

    HT: Dortmund 2-0 Real. A double from Reus has given the hosts real hope here. It promises to be a fantastic second half (2-3 on agg).
    45+1'
    One minute added. The hosts will have one last attack...
    45'
    Dortmund continue to attack as the half edges to a close.
    44'
    A WARNING STAT FOR THE HOSTS: It’s been nearly three years since Real Madrid failed to score in a Champions League game (27/04/2011 v Barcelona) and they have scored in 34 successive CL matches since.
    43'
    Bale has barely touched the ball in this half. If Ronaldo is fit, then Real are going to need him at this rate.
    42'
    The corner is cleared but there is no respite for Madrid who are desperate for that half-time whistle.
    41'
    Dortmund turning the screw and Piszczek's low cross is just about cleared with Lewandowski lurking. Corner ball.
    40'
    The crowd have been right up for this from the off but it's hit new heights now.
    39'
    Ancelotti has been on the receiving end of some famous CL comebacks, notably Deportivo against Milan and of course Liverpool in Istanbul. Is it going to be a hat-trick he doesn't want here?
    38'
    STAT: Polish striker Lewandowski has scored or assisted 21 of Borussia Dortmund’s 42 goals in the Champions League since the start of last season.
