The Team and the Game 12 April 2017

Borussia Dortmund goalkeeper Marcel Schmelzer told the
court of the moment the team bus was rocked by

explosions. He said: "There was a loud bang, there was

panic in the bus. The players were in the aisle. I was
extremely shocked, I felt the blast of the bang. Then we

heard screams from Marc Bartra and saw that he was

bleeding. You could see the fear in his eyes."

Sven Bender a former Germany left back, also commented
that he still suffers psychological effects almost a year on

whilst full back Felix Passlack, 19, said he had not yet got

over being caught up in the attack.

He also joined his team-mates in saying they should not
have been made to play when the match was

rescheduled just 24 hours later.

Coach Thomas Tuchel, 44, was sacked after publicly rowing

with team boss Hans-Joachim Watzke over that decision. He
said he would probably still be in his job if not for the bomb

attack, and said his disagreement with Watzke was because:

"I was sitting in the bus and he wasn't."
