Der Klassiker: 3 takeaways from Borussia Dortmund vs Bayern Munich

#3 The rebirth of Marco Reus

His form reminds the football world about the young player they fell in love with

One of the major talking points after this match will be the two goals Marco Reus scored to counter the impact of his old friend, Robert Lewandowski. His staggering form this season as he leads his team's title challenge makes his rebirth more beautiful for football fans around the globe.

Over the years, Marco Reus spent loads of time on the treatment table. His bad luck with injuries seemed like they were never going to stop, but Reus has turned it around with his team. He is the among the rare superstars to have not left Dortmund in times of crisis, although bigger European giants came calling.

Although Reus missed a couple of sitters vs Bayern, his chemistry with Sancho and Paco Alcacer upfront gave the Bayern defenders little rest in the second half. His performances against Bayern Munich resonates the story of this season.

Marco Reus is not getting any younger. He is 29 years old, but his form reminds the football world about the young player they fell in love with, more polished this time around.

Although the likes of Achraf Hakimi, Sancho, and Paco Alcacer have performed superbly, Marco Reus makes Dortmund tick, and is the team's driving force. He proved that once again against Bayern.
