Erling Haaland came off the bench to score twice as Borussia Dortmund thrashed Cologne 5-1 to move up to third place in the Bundesliga.

Haaland had started as a substitute despite scoring a hat-trick on his debut at Augsburg last Saturday, but the Norwegian, who had been linked with a move to Manchester United, continued the remarkable start to his Borussia Dortmund career, making a dramatic late impression with a brace in the final 13 minutes to seal an emphatic win.

Raphael Guerreiro had put Dortmund ahead inside the opening minute after a neat cut-back by Jadon Sancho, and Marco Reus doubled the lead on the half-hour mark.

Sancho got on the scoresheet three minutes into the second half and after Mark Uth pulled one back for the visitors, Haaland emerged to continue his stunning run of form.

Dortmund's victory moved them back up to third place in the Bundesliga table, level on points with Bayern Munich and four behind leaders RB Leipzig.
