00:08sees them in Altach at the Cashpoint Arena
00:11against La Liga side Villarreal.
00:14Four 30-minute periods of play between the two sides
00:19would see plenty of players in action
00:21and plenty of action from the players.
00:24And the action would kick off light from the get-go.
00:28Jeremy Pinto with a chance to break the deadlock
00:32inside three minutes.
00:34However, denied by the woodwork.
00:37And then Borussia Dortmund and Karim Adeyemi
00:41breaking the other direction
00:44with the counter-attack.
00:46The ball finding its way to Jamie Beino Gittens.
00:49His left-footed effort going just wide
00:53of that bottom right corner.
00:55Plenty for the fans to enjoy in Austria
01:00in the opening stages at both ends of the pitch.
01:05Dortmund with plenty of possession
01:08in the first 30 minutes of play.
01:11Pascal Gross, one of the new arrivals
01:15and the return of Giovane Reina
01:19there for fans to enjoy
01:23as part of the starting XI for Nuri Sahin in Altach.
01:27Giovane Reina with a chance to score Dortmund's first of the day.
01:32Denied by Diego Conde.
01:37Conde then called into action again.
01:39Only 26 minutes.
01:41Really good delivery.
01:45Felix Emetia with a glancing header.
01:47Conde with a good stop at his near post.
01:52However, Villarreal would have their chances as well
01:56even if gifted to them.
01:58And it would result in the opening goal as well.
02:01Benze Baini.
02:02A little soft on the pass back to Gregor Korbel.
02:07And it would allow Teraz to just get to the ball
02:12ahead of the Swiss shot-stopper.
02:15And a cheeky little finish would help it over the line as well.
02:20After 30 minutes of play,
02:22the second period of 30 minutes
02:25was a little slower than the first.
02:27Not quite as many chances at either end.
02:30However, Villarreal looking a little more dangerous in front of goal
02:35and would have chances to extend their lead as well.
02:39Not one, but two in the 45th minute.
02:42A rebound by Santi Comezania.
02:47Well wide in the end.
02:48Gregor Korbel making a good save
02:51with the first attempt.
02:53And Villarreal coming again just minutes later
02:56to that left side.
03:02Pascal Gross unable to deal with the danger.
03:05And Suarez able to take advantage of the situation.
03:11Comezania involved again,
03:13making the ball away ahead of course.
03:15And then Suarez helping it into the far corner
03:19to make it two.
03:21BVB did have a chance to get themselves back into it
03:25just a few moments after conceding the second.
03:28Felix and Mecha played in nicely by Adeyemi.
03:32Plenty of pace and power.
03:34But again, Diego Conde keeping the ball out.
03:39Final minutes of the second period of play,
03:42the second quarter.
03:44If you like,
03:45Gianluca Baino-Gittens able to turn with the ball.
03:48Sees a little space there in between the defenders.
03:51Tries to pick out the bottom right corner.
03:54There's that man, Diego Conde once more.
03:57So with 60 minutes of football in the bag,
04:00it was time for Nuri Sahin to make a few changes
04:04with Moukoko, Anton and Emre Can, to name a few,
04:08out on the pitch now.
04:09Adeyemi still out there, stopped in his tracks
04:12in the 72nd minute.
04:15But the danger not over there.
04:17Ball coming back to Jamie Baino-Gittens.
04:19Sees the space and finds the back of the net
04:22with a cracking strike.
04:24Jamie Baino-Gittens with a wonder goal
04:28giving BVB a lifeline.
04:30Just waited a little longer until that space opened up
04:34and when it did, well, boy oh boy,
04:36did he pick his spot well.
04:38Absolutely no keeping that one up.
04:40Then Cole Campbell, the American youngster,
04:44also on in the latter stages of this
04:48120-minute game of football.
04:50Cole finding its way to Yusuf Moukoko.
04:53Tries to sneak it inside the near post there.
04:56Iker Alvarez now in goal for Villarreal.
05:00Standing his ground and keeping that left leg
05:03exactly where it needed to be
05:05to keep Moukoko's attempt out.
05:08Villarreal with far fewer chances
05:11after a fair few changes to their side as well
05:15in the third period of play.
05:18Haissim Hassan with the shot from outside the box.
05:22Plenty of bodies in the way.
05:24Alexander Maier now in goal for BVB
05:27making a decent stop.
05:30So the final 30 minutes
05:32will then see the likes of Marcel Sabitzer
05:35and the young Belgian international Julian Duranville
05:38involved as well.
05:39And they would link up beautifully
05:41in the 107th minute of play.
05:44Julian Duranville has a classy touch
05:47to take it past the defender
05:48after great work from Moukoko
05:50to keep the ball alive as well.
05:52There's that first touch,
05:53a second to settle himself,
05:55and Sabitzer there to help the ball over the line
05:58and give BVB at this point
06:01a well-deserved equaliser
06:03to make it 2-2.
06:05That would be the final score as well
06:07and wrap up a lengthy evening in Altach.
06:11A fair scoreline come the end of play
06:14and plenty of positives for Nuri Sahin
06:16to take with him into the final.
