Borussia Dortmund coach Terzic: Seeing Haller on the pitch gave me goosebumps

Borussia Dortmund coach Edin Terzic admits it was a special moment seeing Sebastien Haller return to action yesterday.

The former Ajax and West Ham striker has recovered after treatment to a cancer diagnosis last year.

Haller had 15 minutes on the field in a friendly against Fortuna Düsseldorf, which Dortmund won 5-1.

"He's doing better and better. We have seen plenty to be calm about the near future," said Terzic.

"He is hungry after sitting out for many months. He wants to get back to the top. His work on the training ground is more than promising.

"We are becoming more unpredictable with him on the field, and I just have to say it give me goosebumps to see him in battle again."
