Thorgan Hazard (7/10)

It’s a shame Hazard didn’t start, because he added so much energy and directness to the team after coming on. With Raphael Guerreiro out injured, Borussia Dortmund were missing threat down the wings. And with Hazard playing 90 minutes, the result could have been very different.

Youssoufa Moukoko (7/10)

Moukoko showed several moments of brilliance after coming on and brought a lot of energy to the team. He nearly scored a magical first goal after a stunning turn to go clean through, but just couldn’t apply the finish. He then held the ball up well in the build-up to Hazard’s goal. He nearly created an equaliser in the final moments of the game after his cross across the face of goal found Marco Reus. But somehow, Haaland missed the shot from the Dortmund captain’s cut-back.

Gio Reyna (6/10)

His pass for Hazard’s goal was really well weighted. But other than that, he wasn’t able to create much.
