'Good news' - Journalist reacts as Rangers given another boost before Dortmund alongside Balogun

Andrew Dickson has now given his reaction to the news that Erling Haaland has not travelled with Borussia Dortmund for their game at Glasgow Rangers.

Haaland has been missing for Dortmund for just over a month now with muscular problems, and so missed the first leg of their match against the Ibrox faithful, to which the latter won 4-2 (Transfermarkt).

It is clear how key he is to the Bundesliga team, having averaged more than a goal a game in all competitions so far this season, and with a two-goal deficit, Dortmund could have done with his firepower in the second leg on Thursday night.

Taking to Twitter, journalist Dickson has since reacted to the fact that Haaland is not with the Dortmund squad once more as they prepare to face the Teddy Bears:

“Good news for Rangers fans, Erling Haaland has not travelled to Glasgow with Borussia Dortmund for tomorrow’s Europa League tie at Ibrox…”

After Leon Balogun revealed in the pre-game press conference earlier this afternoon that he is back fit and available for the match, having him back and not having to face Haaland will come as a welcome boost.

The Norway international’s numbers speak for themselves, and the fact that Dortmund only managed a mere three shots on target from 13 in the reverse fixture implies that they are not as clinical without him.

Nonetheless, Giovanni van Bronckhorst should now be more confident than ever that his side can get through the second leg and make further progress in the UEFA Europa League.
