Borussia Dortmund 1-0 PSG: Three takeaways as BVB reach Champions League final
By Joseph Meyer
Borussia Dortmund can give Marco Reus the swan song he deserves
Marco Reus’ first season with Borussia Dortmund was the last time they reached the Champions League final, and that final was also held at Wembley.
Since then, Reus has declined offers from the biggest clubs in the world to stay with the Black and Yellow. He served a five-year spell as team captain and inspired many a modern fan.
Now, the 34 year old's final game for Borussia Dortmund will be the UEFA Champions League final at Wembley. Reus has been loyal to Borussia Dortmund, and now the club can send him off with one of the sport's most coveted trophies.
Even if the swan song isn’t perfect, a Champions League final is still a heck of a way to go. Regardless of the final’s outcome, we should all be proud of this squad for reaching the final. Not only is this a huge achievement, it’ll show prospective players that Borussia Dortmund is a team that is capable of competing for the top honours. This also makes the Bundesliga look good, and raises the international recognition of the both the league and the club.
Right now, let’s all enjoy this moment and savour these last couple of Bundesliga matches with Marco Reus. Fifth place, who cares? Borussia Dortmund are in the Champions League final.
