"Lucky" Hakimi praised by Borussia Dortmund's Favre and Gotze after Inter Milan heroics

Borussia Dortmund manager Lucien Favre praised two-goal hero Achraf Hakimi for his "outstanding" display in their 3-2 victory against Inter Milan.

The German Bundesliga side rallied from a two-goal deficit in the first half to take maximum points in Tuesday's Champions League encounter, thanks to Hakimi's second-half double.

"Hakimi was everywhere. He played right-back and he was outstanding. Compliments to him: he scored twice but the others have been feeding him well, too,” Favre said after the game.
