36'
Reus tees up Aubameyang who slides in but cannot make proper contact and the ball goes harmlessly wide.
34'
A long ball is played for Aubameyang but Mignolet races off his line to gather. The Belgian keeper has his critics but he has been solid and was not to blame for either goal.

CHANCE FOR FIRMINO! The Reds win a corner down the left, the ball is played in and the Brazilian's glanced header with his back to goal goes wide. That was a tough chance for the former Hoffenheim striker.

Does Klopp need to consider making a switch tactically? The Red have given themselves a mountain to climb already..
9'
GOAL! Its Aubameyang! The striker runs behind Sakho and on the stretch rifles the ball into the roof of the net, that was some finish. It is 2-0 Dortmund..
8'
Aubameyang just fails to get on the end of a through ball, the home side are struggling to adapt to the tempo. Firmino is shown a yellow for a two-footed challenge on Reus, the Brazilian was perhaps lucky to have not got a more serious punishment.
