While Reus should hardly have a chance to be named, but there are almost certainly defenders Nico Schlotterbeck and Niklas Süle, among Mats Hummels, Julian Brandt, Youssoufa Moukoko and Karim Adeyemi there are at least four Dortmunders among the shaky candidates. At VfL there are two in Nmecha and Maximilian Arnold. Manager Niko Kovac paid no attention to the team announcement by national team manager Hansi Flick on Thursday and put Nmecha on the bench two days earlier. This game was actually made for strikers like Dortmund’s Nmecha or Moukoko for the many opportunities it offered, as the case of the VfL pro should also demonstrate.
