Dortmund 2-1 Gladbach: Report, Ratings & Reaction as Reus Downs Former Side to Extend League Lead

Borussia Dortmund have extended their lead at the top of the Bundesliga table to nine points in their last game before the winter break, where goals from Jadon Sancho and Marco Reus helped topple a second placed Borussia Mönchengladbach.

Both teams were starved of opportunities in the first half and it looked like they'd go into the break on level terms, but a quick counter-attack allowed Sancho to show his magic in the final third, eventually firing a shot past an in-form Yann Sommer.

Before the hosts could go into the break, however, a moment of controversy allowed Gladbach back into the match.
