VIDEO: Gio Reyna provides backheel assist in Borussia Dortmund's Champions League win over Shakhtar Donetsk

With Borussia Dortmund leading 2-1, Gio Reyna entered the match in the 64th minute, replacing Julian Brandt. His big moment came 15 minutes later, when his backheel assist played in Ramy Bensebaini, whose fantastic chipped finish put the game to bed.

In total, Reyna completed 11 of his 14 passes, with one leading to that assist. Four of those passes were into the final third, too, as Reyna showed off the aggression and creativity needed to help seal the 3-1 win over Shakhtar Donetsk.

The assist provides more evidence of how Reyna can help this Dortmund team, where he remains outside of the preferred XI. He's started both of interim coach Mike Tullberg's games in charge on the bench, but perhaps this assist could kickstart a long-awaited push for more minutes.

Reyna has played just 159 minutes in the Bundesliga, making just one start. He has, though, scored two goals in this 159 minutes. Wednesday was his fourth Champions League appearance of the season, as he totaled 191 minutes in the continental competition.

Dortmund have struggled recently in the Bundesliga, leaving them 11th in Germany's top flight. That run of results led to Nuri Sahin's exit and Tullberg's arrival, and Tullberg will have some decisions to make ahead of this weekend's Bundesliga battle with Heidenheim.
