Borussia Dortmund midfielder Nuri Sahin warms up on Wednesday's Sport cover of The National during a training session in Dortmund ahead of his club's crucial second-leg Uefa Champions League meeting with Benfica.
Ian Hawkey wrote ahead of the match about a Dortmund attack out for revenge after Benfica took a 1-0 lead in the first leg.
“Beware a Borussia Dortmund scorned. Since the German club returned from Lisbon perplexed at how they had not converted any of their chances, fluffed a penalty and ended up losers of the first leg of their last-16 Uefa Champions League tie with Benfica, a pent-up frustration has been unleashed on others.”
