EUROPA LEAGUE: AUBAMEYANG INSPIRES DORTMUND COMEBACK IN 4-3 THRILLER AGAINST ODDS BK
Borussia Dortmund narrowly escaped embarrassment on Thursday thanks to Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, who led a sensational comeback in the first leg of the Europa League playoff round against Norwegian side Odds BK.
The match started disastrously for the German giants, who found themselves trailing 3-0 within just 20 minutes. Defensive errors and a fired-up Odds side stunned Dortmund early on, leaving their qualification hopes in jeopardy.
But the response was emphatic. Aubameyang scored twice, igniting the revival, while Shinji Kagawa and Henrikh Mkhitaryan added a goal each to secure an incredible 4-3 win for the visitors in what turned into a seven-goal spectacle.
The result gives Dortmund a crucial edge heading into the return leg in Germany next week, where they’ll look to secure their spot in the Europa League group stage.
