A winner of five La Liga titles and two Champions Leagues, the defender says his return from surgery was his favourite footballing moment

Borussia Dortmund defender Marc Bartra says his return to action following the attack on the team bus was his best moment in professional football.

The 26-year-old needed surgery on his wrist after being injured by broken glass when three explosive devices were detonated close to the Dortmund bus as the team travelled to Signal Iduna Park for a European clash with Monaco on April 11.

Bartra was unable to play again until May 20, when Dortmund concluded their Bundesliga campaign with a thrilling 4-3 win over Werder Bremen that secured an automatic Champions League spot.
