Dortmund can be pleased with last night's (Tuesday) result against Manchester City after finishing the first part of the Champions League quarter-final with a minimum loss of 2: 1.
But the incident that took place at the end of the game shocked the surfers on social networks.
Television cameras recorded immediately after the final whistle at Etihad the Kwon Octavian Sobra asking for a signature from Dortmund star, Arling Holland.
The Norwegian striker, who quite rarely failed to score yesterday, complied with Hakwon's unusual request and signed the game book, which may be worth quite a bit in the future.

British television broadcasts did not like the admiration of someone who was supposed to be a neutral factor towards one of the team players.
Owen Hargreaves, current BT Sport commentator and former England international, said: "You can not do such a thing, it does not look good."
Jolan Scott, who won the championship with Manchester City valid: "It's never the right time to do it, it looks bad and childish."
Citizens coach Pep Guardiola responded to the incident: "I've never seen anything like it in my life, but it happened."
