Dortmund remains winless in group stages after 2–0 loss at Club Brugge
Club Brugge pulled off a stunning 2-0 victory over Borussia Dortmund in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday, continuing the German club's poor start to the group stage.
A dream start for Club Brugge

The Belgian champions doubled their advantage just before half-time when Ferran Jutgla netted, putting Dortmund on the brink of a third straight defeat in the group stage.
Dortmund’s struggles continue
The defeat leaves Dortmund bottom of Group G with just one point from three games, while Club Brugge climbed to second place with four points.
This result puts Dortmund's qualification hopes in jeopardy, as they now face an uphill battle to qualify for the knockout stages.
What went wrong for Dortmund?
