Dortmund striker Erling Haaland suffers minor knee injury after clash with referee

Published on: 27 May 2020

Bayern manager Hansi Flick was full of praise for Dortmund's Sancho after their 1-0 win in Der Klassiker. Bayern's Davies says where he thinks he would come in a 100m race against the world's fastest players. Bayern Munich's Thomas Muller jokingly compares teammate Alphonso Davies' speed to the Road Runner. Herculez Gomez list his top five American players in from the recent Bundesliga fixtures.

Borussia Dortmund forward Erling Haaland was injured on Tuesday in the match against Bayern Munich in an apparent clash with referee Tobias Stieler.

Haaland limped off the field in the second half in the 72nd minute and it was not initially clear at what time he was hurt.

Reports said Haaland twisted his knee in the clash with Stieler.

Dortmund manager Lucien Favre said the injury was minor.

"I do not think he will be out. He has something wrong with his knee but we do not yet know what it is," Favre said.

Borussia Dortmund, who have finished in second place for the last three years, played their quietest ever Bundesliga game against seven-time defending champion Bayern Munich on Tuesday and lost 1-0 in an empty stadium.

The Bavarian club, who won after a perfectly weighted lob from Joshua Kimmich, now lead Dortmund by seven points.
