Dortmund's Kovac praises Bodø, artificial pitch no excuse

Borussia Dortmund will not underestimate Bodø/Glimt and playing the Champions League match on Wednesday on a artificial pitch in Norway is also no excuse, coach Niko Kovac has said. Bodø played to a 2-2 draw in Dortmund last season when they beat the likes of Manchester City and Inter Milan at home in their surprise run to the last 16. They started this season with a big 5-0 defeat at Bayern Munich and now face German opposition again in the form of Dortmund, who beat Villarreal 3-2 in their league stage opener.
