Mamelodi Sundowns v Borussia Dortmund: Williams calamity as Lucas Ribeiro worldie is cancelled out

Lucas Ribeiro scored a stunning individual goal to give Mamelodi Sundowns an early lead against Borussia Dortmund only for the advantage to be wiped out following a moment of madness from goalkeeper Ronwen Williams..

The South African side, who beat Ulsan in their opening game in the United States, had already come close through Tashreeq Matthews – Gregor Kobel parrying his shot – when Ribeiro struck after 11 minutes.

Matthews picked out the number 10 in midfield and Ribeiro instantly turned Niklas Sule before running towards goal. He skipped past Waldemar Anton to go clear and then calmly slotted past Kobel with his left foot.

10′ @Masandawana take the lead through Ribeiro!

Dortmund were rocking but were handed a route back into the game just five minutes later.

Under little pressure, Mamelodi goalkeeper Williams attempted a pass out from the back but got it all wrong and the ball fell to Felix Nmecha and he fired into the empty net from 10 yards.

Williams redeemed himself partially with a brilliant close-range save to deny Serhou Guirassy in a frantic opening 20 minutes.

16′ Nmecha levels it for @BVB — game on!
