That is all we have time for on Tribe as Borussia Dortmund manage to win back-to-back games in the Champions League. I have been Elliot Thompson, and thank you for joining me. Join us tomorrow on Tribe for more Champions League action.
Borussia Dortmund, at the moment, sits at the top of the Champions League table due to a goal difference of nine. However, that could change tomorrow with more games. The important thing is that they are in the top eight, which will send them through to the round of 16. Next up for them is an away game against Union Berlin. Celtic are currently in 19th place in the Champions League. Next for them is also an away game against Ross County on Sunday.
Celtic fans and Brendan Rodgers will be wanting to forget this one very quickly. They looked like they were going to show the rest of Europe what they had got with Maeda's equaliser. Engels sent in a cross from the right, which Maeda bundled past Kobel. After that moment, though, they imploded. Every pass out from the back line was a sloppy one. In every transition, they were wide open and looked in so much trouble. Rodgers has a poor record in Europe due to his playstyle, and that today will certainly not help that. Nevertheless, Celtic, of course, still have a massive chance to go through to at least the playoff round in this new Champions League format. They have six more games to make up for this horrendous result. Some improvements at the back will certainly be needed for the other away games they have got left in the league phase.
A GOAL FEST ENSURES DORTMUND WIN ALL THREE POINTS! What a performance from Nuri Sahin's side, who simply blew Celtic to pieces in the first half. They opened the scoring with a spot-kick from Emre Can after Kasper Schmeichel fouled Jamie Bynoe-Gittens. Celtic responded very quickly, but after that, Dortmund ran the show. Adeyemi got their second with a deflected strike, and just before the half an hour mark, he scored again. His second was a tremendous strike with so much power on the left side of the box. Their fourth goal of the contest was another penalty as this time Adeyemi was fouled. Guirassy took over the penalty duties and scored with ease. The fifth was the hat trick for Adeyemi, who took advantage of Maeda's poor touch on the edge of his box. He struck the ball into the bottom right corner. In the second half, Sahin's men didn't stop as Guirassy got his second. He showed some lovely footwork to get past Scales before slotting the ball home into the bottom left corner. The last goal for the Germans came from substitute Nmecha. He got on the end of a loose clearance from Trusty. With a first-time shot, he buried the ball into the bottom left corner to top off a memorable night for the Dortmund faithful.
90+3'
Engels on the right wing pokes the ball past Bensebaini. He comes in with a hard tackle catching Engels with his studs on his right foot. The referee spots it and shows Bensebaini a yellow card.

90+1'
Bynoe-Gittens is pressed by three Celtic defenders on the left side. He wins a throw, which is taken quickly to Bensebaini. The left-back switches the play to Duranville on the right wing. He tries to cut inside on his left foot, but Valle does enough to win it off him.

CHANCE! Trusty runs forward on the right side in his half. He plays a lovely pass in behind the Dortmund defence, finding Idah. On the right, he charges forward but tries to cut inside of Anton on his left foot. The defender reads it and easily gets a foot in. He should have taken the shot on with his right!
