Match ends, Borussia Dortmund 2, Borussia Mönchengladbach 1.

Jadon Sancho scored his seventh goal of the season as Borussia Dortmund reacted to their first Bundesliga loss of 2018-19 to beat Borussia Monchengladbach in their top-of-the-table game.
The 18-year-old England winger received a pass from Mario Gotze and scored a low drive from a tight angle which went in via the post.
Christoph Kramer equalised from close range in first-half injury time.
Sancho had a hand in the second goal before Marco Reus slid in Gotze's pass.
It was a 14th goal of the season for Reus and the first time since April 2013 Gotze set up two goals in one Bundesliga game.
Their 13-goal second top scorer Paco Alcacer, making only his fifth Bundesliga start, came off with an injury in the first half and was replaced by Gotze.
Dortmund, who lost at Fortuna Dusseldorf on Tuesday, are nine points clear of Gladbach and Bayern Munich, who visit Eintracht Frankfurt in their game in hand on Saturday (17:30 GMT).

courage and foresight of Dortmund to see his potential and actually play him.
Are City fans so up Pep's backside they genuinely believe Sancho would have been better off starting Carabao Cup games + coming on as a PL sub at 3-0 rather than starting almost every week even vs top teams?
Or maybe there are leagues outside of England that are much better at developing young players? The EPL has never been the best league for world young players coming through. La Liga or the Bundesliga have much better track record for developing world class young players. There's no point in staying in England if you could develop better elsewhere.
It's good for the youth to gain experience of different footballing cultures and will benefit England in the long term.
How many players were hyped up by the press and end up being just a good player and nothing exceptional
Hopefully he's inspiring more young English players to do the same thing.
Regardless of the WC semi-final (only because most of the successful countries had a nightmare) we're still miles behind.
Quality German coaching is the way forward for England.

Mo Salah is just a goalhanger.

A very succesful goal hanger who seems to be scoring the goals AGAIN this season, i bet every team wished they had a goal hanger like him....
mediacity you seem bitter
pathetic clubs.
Some fluffer needs to knock Bayern off their perch. Great league to watch but usually only one winner. It’s like Ligue 1 but the games are decent to watch, crowds are sick too! Cmon you Yellows! 😆
