Hertha Berlin have taken a 1-0 lead into the half-time interval of their Bundesliga clash with Borussia Dortmund
Dortmund started the brighter of the two sides, but struggled to create chances early on, with Ciro Immobile going closest when his speculative effort sailed over the crossbar.
Hertha improved as the first half progressed as Dortmund struggled to make use of the attacking threat of Immobile and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.
Jurgen Klopp was then dealt a blow when Henrikh Mkhitaryan was forced off the pitch with what appeared to be a hamstring injury.
A disappointing first half for Dortmund was made even worse in the 40th minute when Hertha took the lead thanks to Julian Schieber, who created space for himself in the box before firing past Mitchell Langerak.
