When you hear about Igor Akinfeev and the Champions League the first thing that comes to mind is his terrible clean sheet record - it took him 11 years to keep his first clean sheet.
However, he had a night to remember on Tuesday as CSKA Moscow secured a famous victory over Real Madrid.
Akinfeev was on course for a clean sheet before he was sent off with minutes to go.
It appeared to be two quick yellow cards for protesting to the referee as can be seen below.
Absolutely incredible.
