Club Brugge 0 Borussia Dortmund 1: Super sub Pulisic scores late winner

Christian Pulisic closed down a clearance and watched the ball sail over the Club Brugge goalkeeper and into the net as Dortmund won 1-0.

Christian Pulisic scored a late winner to earn Borussia Dortmund a 1-0 victory over Club Brugge after Lucien Favre's side survived a number of scares in their Champions League opener.

In a battle between two sides with unbeaten records this season, visiting coach Favre gave rare starts to Mario Gotze and Jadon Sancho but saw his side frequently pinned back by a dynamic Brugge outfit.

Dortmund improved significantly in the second half and substitute Pulisic had only been on the field for 16 minutes when he looped the ball into the net to ensure his side made the most of perhaps their best chance for an away win in Group A.
