Player to watch – Serhou Guirassy
Serhou Guirassy silenced some of his remaining doubters in midweek when he proved his mettle as a top-class striker by bagging a Champions League hat-trick against Barcelona, and though Dortmund eventually went out, it remained an evening of real personal significance for the Guinean.

Guirassy the history maker
On Wednesday, Serhou Guirassy became the first African player to score a hat-trick against Barcelona in the Champions League, and the player with the most goals scored against Barcelona in a single edition of the competition (five in 2024/25). Expect the 29-year-old to have a kick in his step on Sunday.
