MÖNCHENGLADBACH, Germany — Ivory Coast hero Sébastien Haller's first start for Borussia Dortmund since winning the Africa Cup of Nations has lasted just eight minutes. Haller had to go off early in the Bundesliga match at Borussia Mönchengladbach after twisting his left leg in a tackle. Haller had made only substitute appearances for Dortmund since returning from the Africa Cup with an ankle injury. His ill luck with injuries struck again when he was tackled in the second minute by Gladbach defender Nico Elvedi. Haller received treatment on the field before making way for Youssoufa Moukoko. The extent of Haller's injury isn't immediately known.
