Atalanta BC’s qualification against Borussia Dortmund (4-1) in the second leg of the Champions League playoff left its mark… quite literally.
In stoppage time, Nikola Krstovic was struck on the head by Ramy Bensebaini’s foot as the defender attempted an acrobatic clearance. The result: the Montenegrin forward got back on his feet with blood streaming down his forehead and a deep, shocking cut.
A Decisive Penalty in a Dramatic Finish
The foul awarded Atalanta the crucial penalty that sealed their qualification. It was the turning point of an already intense and hard-fought encounter.
After the match, Krstovic shared a photo on Instagram of his spectacular scar — a powerful symbol of a fierce battle and a hard-earned ticket to the next round.
