Dortmund’s Julian Brandt injured in Champions League game at Chelsea

The Hindu  

Borussia Dortmund midfielder Julian Brandt was injured and substituted after just five minutes of his team’s Champions League round-of-16 second leg against Chelsea on Tuesday. Brandt’s early exit was a big blow to a Dortmund team that led 1-0 after the first leg. The German team went into the game on a run of 10 straight wins and trails Bayern Munich atop the Bundesliga on goal difference only. But that run came to an end against a Chelsea team that had gone six games without a win before beating Leeds 1-0 on Saturday.
