Tooor for Manchester City, 1-1 by Will Dickson
There’s the ball in there! Mebude asserts himself strongly on the right side and plays flat in front. Borges misses Ostrzinski, but the ball rebounds to Mebude, who crosses again and finds Dickson at the far post. This has no trouble sinking from a short distance.

Very good cross from the half-right City side. Bobb gets the ball in the middle where Borges should just nod off. Collins just gets his head on the ball and clarifies this situation.

Even if City is putting a lot of pressure on and BVB is already largely on the defensive, the guests haven’t had any real chances to score here. This is definitely very positive news for BVB.

But if BVB plays over the pressing line, there are many spaces. Gürpüz is sent off by Rijkhoff, but the referee calls the action back for offside. The referee is probably wrong about that.

Dortmund is under pressure! Bobb tries a shot from behind, but the ball is blocked. Borges almost gets the ball, but Collins is there in time for BVB.

That’s exactly why BVB doesn’t really come out from behind in this phase. Borussia are currently unable to outplay the guests’ pressing.

However, City has now also arrived in this game and has the first offensive actions. The Citizens also attack BVB’s defensive line very early and have already won a few balls.

Dortmund takes the momentum with them in the first few moments after the goal. A lot seems to be going on here today, especially on the outside, because City defends very high.

Tooor for Borussia Dortmund, 1:0 by Paris Brunner
What a lightning start! Semic joins the first attack of the game on the right flank and crosses wonderfully into the middle. Brunner positions himself cleverly between the central defenders and climbs up to the header. Without much pressure, but with a precise fit, the attacker sinks the leather into the left corner.

Here we go! Dortmund starts and unsurprisingly in yellow and black! Meanwhile, the Skyblues live up to their name and perform in sky-blue jerseys.

Manchester City can be even more relaxed in the duel with BVB, because they have already secured a place in the top two ranks thanks to the Seville victory. With a draw today, you could even win the group. That should naturally be the goal of the British.
15:31
Good news for the BVB U19s before the game. Because the Andalusians are currently leading 2-0 against FC Copenhagen in Seville, the Borussia U19s will definitely get a final in Copenhagen. But of course you can work out a better starting position for this, which would require at least a draw against Manchester City today to be only two points behind Copenhagen. Then you could move ahead of the Danes with a “simple” win and not have to win the direct comparison as well.

Hello and welcome to the fifth day of the Youth League! Before the pros get into the next round tonight, the two U19 teams from Borussia Dortmund and Manchester City will be in action at 4 p.m.!
