Events

Match Events

  • 0' The ball is rolling at Signal Iduna Park. Borussia Dortmund are looking to make home advantage count against Manchester City FC.
  • 5' Emre Can is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Borussia Dortmund tonight.
  • 10' Borussia Dortmund have won 806 goals from 524 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
  • 15' What a strike from Jude Bellingham! The score is 1-0.
  • 20' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 25' Manchester City FC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 30' The home supporters are growing impatient. Borussia Dortmund must find a spark to ignite this game.
  • 35' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
  • 39' A meaty challenge results in booking for Jude Bellingham on 39.
  • 44' Borussia Dortmund currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
  • 49' Borussia Dortmund seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
  • 54' Erling Haaland has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 16 goals this season.
  • 55' Magnificent from Riyad Mahrez! That is 80 goals in 439 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
  • 60' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Julian Brandt suffering a number of foals already.
  • 65' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 68' The supporters are chanting for Gio Reyna. He replaces Ansgar Knauff on 68 minute.
  • 73' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both Borussia Dortmund and Manchester City FC are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
  • 75' A goal from the England international Phil Foden! He fires home on 75 to make it 1-2!
  • 76' The supporters are chanting for Thorgan Hazard. He replaces Mahmoud Dahoud on 76 minute.
  • 81' It is a substitution in Borussia Dortmund team. Jude Bellingham is replaced by Julian Brandt on 81 minute.
  • 86' Borussia Dortmund is showing some good football. However, Borussia Dortmund are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 88' The Manchester City FC manager makes a substitution. Riyad Mahrez departs to be replaced by Raheem Sterling.
  • Full Time. Manchester City FC beats Borussia Dortmund
