CONFIRMED Borussia Dortmund lineup for Champions League quarterfinal against Manchester City
By Tushar Bahl
Forwards: Marco Reus, Ansgar Knauff, Erling Haaland
None of Borussia Dortmund’s front three had a good game against Eintracht Frankfurt. And Thorgan Hazard has paid the price, with Ansgar Knauff coming into the team in his place. This is Knauff’s first professional start of his career and it will no doubt be a great moment for the younger.
Erling Haaland will lead the line for Borussia Dortmund, looking to continue his exceptional scoring record in the Champions League. The 20 year old has already scored ten goals in the Champions League this season, and is the leading scorer of the tournament so far.
Marco Reus will be aiming to find his form again with a good performance against Manchester City. The Borussia Dortmund captain scored on his last visit to the Etihad Stadium, and registered two assists in the round of 16 tie against Sevilla.
Gio Reyna, Julian Brandt, Reinier and Thorgan Hazard are all out of form and are on the bench.
