It wasn't pretty, but Borussia Dortmund will be happy to avoid an away loss to PAOK after finding an unconventional equaliser late in Thursday's Europa League match.
The German side had to wait until the 72nd minute to find an answer to PAOK's first-half opener, when Gonzalo Castro's cross into the box surprisingly found the back of the net.

Castro's ball into the PAOK box didn't look threatening whatsoever until Jonas Hofmann pulled off a clever dummy to fool the 'keeper and allow the ball to slowly bounce into goal.
