A bittersweet night for the Netherlands international.
Klaas-Jan Huntelaar’s 2008 dream move to Real Madrid didn’t work out as planned.
He was deemed not good enough by Real and was shipped out to AC Milan after just half a season.
Those at the Bernabeu who insisted Huntelaar wasn’t up to the task must have been on the edge of their seats on Tuesday night as he almost dragged his side through to quarter-finals.
His two goals and overall movement were a constant thorn in Madrid’s side.
That’s why he is the winner of JOE’s Champions League innovation of the week.
