Haaland: Mbappe hat-trick inspired me to Dortmund double against Sevilla

Borussia Dortmund sensation Erling Haaland says his match-winning performance against Sevilla on Wednesday was inspired by Paris Saint-Germain star Kylian Mbappe's hat-trick against Barcelona the previous night.

Dortmund came from behind to beat the hosts 3-2 in the first leg of the last-16 tie. After Sevilla forward Suso opened the scoring early in the game, Mahmoud Dahoud equalised for the visitors and Haaland followed up with a double before half-time.

Haaland now has eight goals from five matches in the Champions League this season, and 25 from 24 appearances in all competitions.
