Evening all, and welcome to Internazionale v Borusssia Dortmund!

Hakimi gets down the right but delays his cross and Asamoah blocks behind.

Barella and Witsel enjoy a pleasing tussle in midfield before Barella loses patience and dispenses a boot.

Dortmund's lack of a striker is killing them - they're badly missing Alcacer because they've no one to hit with possession or crosses and no one to hold the ball up.

Sombre or what.

Dortmund have showed very little edge,and we've seen very little of Sancho.

Yup, there we go - he was on.

It'd be nice to be allowed a proper look.

It's given! That must've been extremely tight.

VAR is checking for offside...

GOAL! Internazionale 1-0 Borussia Dortmund (Lautaro) De Vrij clips a long, straight ball over the top - a good one, but one nonetheless - which Lautaro chests down, pursues, and swivels to fire home low under Burki.

Not sure that wearing the same-coloured clothes achieves much.

Dortmund are playing a 4-5-1 out of possession, which is stopping Inter from doing much offensively. But then Asamoah sticks a crossfield one into Candreva whose cross is too long for Lautaro and Lukaku, but only just.

A ball in behind for Brandt wins Dortmund a corner, but Hummels seems to duck as it reaches his head and Inter bring it away.

More non-threatening Dortmund possession.

A cute backheel from Lautaro briefly creates space for Barella, but he turns away from his team-mates and eventually Candreva lumps an awful pass up with which Gagliardini cannot catch.

Inter knock it back and forth about the defence like Liverpool in their 80s pomp. Then Godin humps it long and that's the end of that.

Asamoah comes in off the left and slips a ball in behind, seeking Lukaku, but it's nowhere near him.

This game, in theory the best of the night, has started slowly. But it's still Dortmund with the ball, probing.

Apparently Messi has just become the first player to score in 15 straight Champions Leagues. Not bad.

Nothing whatsoever to do with football, but dearie me!

Inter win a free-kick just outside the box, right-hand side. Lukaku comes over for a look, but leaves it for Candreva who shapes to cross, then cuts a cross a low right-footed drive which bobbles wide of the far post.
