LONDON — Borussia Dortmund midfielder Julian Brandt was injured and substituted after just five minutes of his team's Champions League round-of-16 second leg against Chelsea. The 26-year-old Brandt rubbed his left hamstring as he limped off after receiving treatment on the field. He was replaced by United States international Gio Reyna in the match at Stamford Bridge. Chelsea went on to win 2-0 to advance to the quarterfinals with a 2-1 aggregate victory after goals from Raheem Sterling and Kai Havertz. Sterling put Chelsea ahead in the 43rd minute and Havertz scored the winner with a twice-taken penalty in the second half.
