Borussia Dortmund are worried about four injured players following their DFB Cup exit at VfB Stuttgart. Striker Youssoufa Moukoko had to be substituted in the first half of the 2-0 (0-0) defeat in the round of 16 at the Swabians on Wednesday. The U21 international felt a stitch in his back thigh, reported BVB coach Edin Terzic after the game.
