"Borussia Dortmund were dominant 4-0 winners against 10-man Villarreal in the Champions League on Tuesday despite twice failing from the penalty spot. The Bundesliga side's first spot-kick failure saw Serhou Guirassy tuck away the rebound after being denied by Luiz Junior, but there was no reprieve for Fabio Silva as his late effort struck the crossbar. Dortmund were already three up by the time of that second miss, though, with Guirassy breaking the deadlock from close range in the final moments of a quiet first half at Signal Iduna Park."
"Villarreal's hopes of making a contest of the second half lasted only seven minutes before Juan Foyth was sent off for handling on the line, with Guirassy doubling Dortmund's lead at the second attempt. Two quickly became three as Karim Adeyemi was credited with an unorthodox third, and Silva's penalty miss was followed by a late fourth when Daniel Svensson headed in. It was a disappointing night in the Champions League for the Spanish contingent, with Athletic Club the only LaLiga side to earn a point. They were held to a goalless draw at Slavia Prague."
