📸 No red card for this! Horror tackle overshadows BVB's DFB-Pokal win
Without much brilliance, but ultimately successful, BVB prevailed against third-division side Rot-Weiss Essen in the first round of the DFB-Pokal. However, the joy over the victory was overshadowed by a rough foul. In one of the last scenes of the match, Essen's Kelsey Owusu tried to block a clearance from Dortmund's Yan Couto. Instead, the substitute caught his opponent's kneecap with his studs showing. While Couto writhed in pain, referee Frank Willenborg only showed a yellow card. Whether and how seriously the BVB star is injured cannot yet be determined. Equally questionable, however, is the decision not to issue a red card in this situation.

Guirassy sends struggling Dortmund past Essen in German Cup
A 79th-minute goal from Serhou Guirassy took Borussia Dortmund to a 1-0 win at neighbours Essen in the first round of the German Cup on Monday. Five-time German Cup winners Dortmund struggled against their third division opponents, carving out few opportunities. With the match drifting towards extra time, Guirassy collected the ball outside the penalty area and hit a low shot inside the right post to take the lead for the visitors. In stoppage time, Essen midfielder Kelsey Owusu fouled Dortmund wingback Yan Couto and the Brazilian needed to be stretchered from the pitch. Dortmund and Essen lie 35 kilometres away from each other in Germany's crowded and football-mad Ruhr region. The last time the two sides met was in 2008, when future Liverpool coach Jurgen Klopp made his debut as Dortmund manager. Klopp would go on to win two Bundesliga titles and one German Cup as Dortmund coach, along with taking the club to the 2013 Champions League final, where they lost to rivals Bayern Munich. Earlier on Monday, Mainz, Hertha Berlin and Fortuna Duesseldorf also made it through their first round ties against lower division opposition. dwi/bsp

Look, I'm not sure how to break this to you, but there might not be much to see here. Barcelona lead 4-0 after a blistering first leg performance and are almost certain to reach their first Champions League semi-final since 2019. That's where the but comes in. The 2019 semi-final six years ago was a reminder of football's vicissitudes: Barcelona went to Anfield for the second leg armed with Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez and a 3-0 lead. You know the rest. Even so, if Dortmund go through tonight, it'll be one of the most astonishing turnarounds in football history. Kick off 8pm BST. Share
