I think we deserved it - Dortmund created perhaps 2 good chances across the 90 minutes, the rest were half chances and speculative efforts, we stopped them from really threatening our goal much at all - you go away to Dortmund knowing they are going to throw everything at you, we took the right approach, a mature approach - sacrificed our game in the first half to make sure we didn't lose it all in the first 45 and knew we had to take our chance when it came in the second. Dortmund only had one shot against us in the second half at our place - we were playing well in that game but naively committed too much, this time we learnt our lesson and defended heroically - after the goal we could have scored more and Dortmund ran out of ideas, I thought we made Lewandowski and Reus look very plain and they run riot against most teams.
Deserved it 100%
