After 9 years out of the champions league, Borussia Dortmund are finally back and welcome Arsenal to their stadium.
You would think that they would be a bit fazed by the competition but based on their performance last night, they can take a lot of positives into it.
As much as I am a fan of Arsenal, even I have to admit that Borussia Dortmund were the better team on the night.
They played with such passion and showed no nerves against an Arsenal team, that though have a lot of newcomers, have a manager with a lot of experience in the league in Arsene Wenger.
And though he may have been banned from the sidelines, you can never take away the influence he has on Arsenal.
Arsenal scored the first goal from a nice through ball by Walcott to van Persie who finished with aplomb.
This was against the flow of play as Borussia Dortmund played very well before conceding.
It was obvious Arsenal was holding on for that one goal lead or at the very least, looking to concede only another goal to make it a draw.
Dortmund attacked the Arsenal half and finally managed to breach the Arsenal defense and scored a wonder goal through Ivan Klasnic from out of the box.
Looking back at this match, I can say that for Arsenal to bring back a draw from the current Bundesliga champions is decent for both sides, though more favorably for Arsenal.
