UEFA Champions League 2018/19, Tottenham Hotspur 3-0 Borussia Dortmund: 5 Talking Points

#3 Sancho was Dortmund's sole shining light

Sancho continued to impress

On a night when Lucien Favre's swashbuckling squad looked uncharacteristically sloppy and came a cropper, teenage sensation Jadon Sancho continued to shine bright and provided the spark to keep the cogs turning.

The 18-year old Londoner's homecoming may not have ended in a way he was expecting, but pulled a blinder all alone with his intricate passing and attacking presence.

He heckled the Spurs backline with his mazy runs, whilst also supplying the creative juices in the absence of Marco Reus. He completed three dribbles and also maintained an admirable 81 percent pass success.

Sancho had his rubber stamp on whatever good Dortmund could manage. However, he wasn't helped much by his teammates, who were largely subdued.

His passes were perfectly placed, but no one to bury it. He brought Dortmund back in the match time and again with his mazy runs, but the others around him looked clueless.

More support from the rest of the team might have seen him net a crucial away goal or two. But Sancho nonetheless, impressed on his return to England.
