TL;DR Arsenal loanee Ethan Nwaneri inspired Borussia Dortmund's dramatic 3-2 victory over Hoffenheim, while Inter Milan secured a 91st-minute winner against Napoli.
Key Points - Nwaneri's effort forced an Albian Hajdari own goal to seal Dortmund's comeback. - Lautaro Martinez scored a 91st-minute winner as Inter rallied from two goals down to beat Napoli. - Athletic Bilbao defeated Atlético Madrid 3-0 in La Liga.
What We Know According to The Guardian, Nwaneri's late action led to the decisive own goal for Dortmund.
