What a strike that is from the Gabon international. He cuts onto his right foot from the left flank and smashes one into the top corner from 25 yards out.Lloris had no chance.

Spurs need five.

Fine goal by Aubameyang, who finds the top corner from 25 yards after Castro robbed Lamela. 0-1, 25 https://t.co/YOLa5waBNZ

HT 0-1. Another superb last-ditch tackle from Alderweireld stops Mkhitaryan making it 2. Aubameyang's earlier goal the difference.#thfc

HT: 0-1. Slightly stronger #thfc side but Dortmund still superior. Alderweireld outstanding at the back https://t.co/YOLa5waBNZ

More patient approach from Spurs compared to first game & Dier has really helped with that. He's been willing to be brave & take the ball.
