El Bilal Toure snatched a last-gasp 1-0 win for Stuttgart at Juventus on Tuesday, striking in stoppage time to give the Germans their first win in this season’s revamped Champions League.
Mali forward Toure, who signed for Stuttgart on loan from Atalanta in the summer, lashed in the decisive goal in the second minute of added time just as Juve goalkeeper Mattia Perin thought he had saved a point for his team.

Moments before Perin flung himself to his right to deny Enzo Millot from the penalty spot, capping what looked like to be a hugely impressive rare start between the sticks.
Instead, with Juve down to 10 men due to Danilo being sent off for the foul which gave away the penalty, Toure showed quick feet in the box before finishing past Perin to inflict a first defeat of the season on Juve, who also lose their perfect record in the competition.
Stuttgart moved up to 16th place on four points with Tuesday’s win, while Juve, on six points, dropped out of the top eight positions which give direct qualification for the last 16.
