The Marco Reus free kick goal against Darmstadt was special as the 34-year-old had an emotional final game at Signal Iduna Park.
Reus is playing his final games with Dortmund after 12 seasons with the club. Dortmund’s iconic Yellow Wall had a special tribute to their No. 11, who was given the armband, before the game.

Reus’ time at Dortmund isn't done yet as arguably the biggest game of his career is next with the Champions League final vs. Real Madrid at Wembley Stadium on June 1. Dortmund and Reus last played in the UCL final in 2013 which was also at Wembley, but they fell 2-1 to Bundesliga rivals Bayern Munich.
Dortmund's win on Saturday secured them a fifth-placed finish in the Bundesliga which qualifies them for the Champions League next season.
