Borussia Dortmund 5-1 Augsburg: Departing Reus stars in perfect PSG dress rehearsal
Marco Reus scored one and assisted two more to help Borussia Dortmund to a convincing 5-1 Bundesliga victory over Augsburg.
Borussia Dortmund demolished Augsburg 5-1 in the Bundesliga on Saturday in a perfect dress rehearsal ahead of next week's Champions League semi-final return leg at Paris Saint-Germain.
Dortmund, who face PSG on Tuesday after their 1-0 first leg win in Germany earlier this week, enjoyed a whirlwind start with three goals in the first 29 minutes.
Youssoufa Moukoko struck either side of Doneyll Malen's 20th minute goal to quickly put the game to bed.
Augsburg cut the deficit in the 32nd minute with Ruben Vargas but the visitors restored their three-goal cushion through Marco Reus, who will leave the club after 12 years at the end of the season, in the 34th.
He then delivered his second assist of the game for Felix Nmecha to make it 5-1 in the 64th.
Reus, aged 34 years and 339 days, is the oldest player to be directly involved in three-or-more goals in a Bundesliga match since Bayern Munich's Franck Ribery against Wolfsburg in March 2019.
Dortmund, who have secured a Champions League spot for next season, are in fifth place on 60 points, three behind fourth-placed RB Leipzig.
