Whips a nice ball in and then almost connects on a combination play...hopefully enough to stay in for at least 15 mins to start the second half.
Attackers combining a bit better, CP with a decent cross but then can’t find Reus a little later. Sancho has looked ok and has kept the ball well. Berlin are doing a good job defending him.
It's wet, so I get why he may hesitate, but at times he's been 1v1 on the wing and hasn't even looked to take the defender on. Dortmund as a whole just look sluggish. Delaney's having an alright day.
Bad setup by Favre, I think. Put Reus up top Bring Sancho back to the right wing Bring Larsen down to left wing Slot Pulisic in the middle I want to see that in the 2nd half for 15-20 min, then make some subs if no results.
That was definitely his best span of the half. He wasn't bad during the rest, just didn't have an impact.
If BVB plays like they did the last 10, they'll win. First 35 they've been on the backfoot and tentative. And their attackers never really created much between Puli, Reus and Sancho. That changed in the last 10 tough
Good Lord Pulisic beats the entire right side of Berlin, almost scores from distance + and the corner he forced ends up a goal. Sancho took the goal, and Zagadou finished. But that goal is hugely on Pulisic
He also got fouled once or twice during the run - kept his balance. He's got his dander up for this half
Up and down match -- god it would be so huge if he could get or create a winner here. They desperately need 3 points in the title chase.
Sancho back to the right and Pulisic back to the left, and they look like the players they should be The front 3 are alive again.
Wow. That should've been a penalty for Hertha and then Sancho missed one he'll bury most of the time.
