Jamie Gittens' double and Sehrou Guirassy's cool spot kick ensured last season's runners-up got off to a winning start in Bruges.

Hugo Vetlesen almost gave the hosts an early advantage but hooked his powerful volley against the bar. Club Brugge's display forced BVB coach Nuri Sahin to make a host of attacking changes in the second half, including the introduction of Guirassy and Gittens.

The England Under-21 international struck twice in 11 minutes late on, the first a deflected effort before a dazzling piece of individual brilliance doubled the lead. Fellow replacement Guirassy added a third with a chipped penalty in added time.

Player of the Match: Jamie Gittens (Dortmund)

More from Gittens on being named the Player of the Match: "It is a dream of mine to win this trophy. I have been watching this great competition since I was a kid. I am so happy to win this one right here."
