Mkhitaryan has that priceless quality of being able to carry the ball at pace. Another surge created the 2nd goal https://t.co/YOLa5waBNZ

Understandably, it's gone a bit flat at White Hart Lane.The Dortmund fans are having a blast but there's plenty of empty blue seats on show now.

Spurs have come up short, but at least it's against very good opposition.

That's it for Spurs. They crash out of the Europa League after another dominant Dortmund display.
