Jadon Sancho neded just 45 minutes to show his enormous quality. He scored a goal and hit the crossbar after a great save from Ter Stegen.

Jadon Sancho dropping to the bench for the Barca-Dortmund game was surprising. Despite the problems the player has had throughout the season, people thought Favre was going to forget everything for the vital game at the Camp Nou. 

But it was not like that. The coach went for Schulz who was terrible and only ended up giving game time to the English side in the second half when Barca were 2-0 up. 

Sancho, that said, took advantage of the opportunity. In 45 minutes, he scored a great goal into the top corner and Ter Stegen prevented him getting a second with a superb save onto the bar. 

Why was Sancho so keen prove himself? 'Daily Mail' reported this Thursday that the player is after an offer from Real Madrid or Barcelona. He knows that Premier League sides want him, but he prefers to wait for the big two in La Liga. 

Despite having a contract until 2022, Michael Zorc, the Dortmund sporting director, admitted that he will leave Signal Iduna Park very soon. "He has not made any decision, but you do not have to be a genius to know that he is not going to be here the next five years."
