Borussia Dortmund still have work to do if they want to reach the group stages of the UEFA Europa League, says head coach Thomas Tuchel.

The Bundesliga outfit secured a dramatic first-leg victory over Odd on Thursday, coming from 3-0 down to triumph 4-3 in Norway.

Tuchel criticised his players for “not being ready” for the threat posed by Odd after the seven-goal thriller and knows they are not guaranteed progression despite scoring four away goals.

“We’re at half time, we learned our lesson and if we did not it would be a very bad sign,” he said.

“There’s 90 minutes to go, anything can happen, but we feel confident to win the second match. We will play to win and create chances – this is our mission.

“We had a lot of chances and scored a lot of goals in a spectacular match, and we will be ready to play on Sunday and ready, for sure, to play on Thursday.”
