Reus hoping Haaland can replicate Aubameyang exploits after Dortmund debut hat-trick

Marco Reus says he hopes new Borussia Dortmund signing Erling Haaland can replicate the success of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang after the Norwegian scored a hat-trick on his debut.

Haaland, who signed from Red Bull Salzburg earlier in January, came on as a second-half substitute when his team were trailing 3-1 against Augsburg on Saturday, before turning the game on its head with a remarkable hat-trick to seal a 5-3 win.

Dortmund, who sit fourth in the Bundesliga seven points adrift of leaders RB Leipzig, trailed 3-1 early in the second half before Haaland was introduced, triggering the beginning of a memorable fightback.
