RB Leipzig were beaten 0-1 at home by league leaders Borussia Dortmund when the two teams clashed in the Bundesliga on Saturday.

However, according to RB Leipzig striker Yussuf Poulsen, 'Die Roten Bullen' were really the best team on the pitch.

"I actually believe Dortmund have been talked up a bit too much [after the game]. Yes, they weren't bad, but I felt like we were the much better team," Poulsen told Sky and added:

"They still won a game like that one which is exactly what characterizes a top team - that you also win games where you were not the best team on the pitch. That's forced luck or class."

Borussia Dortmund are top of the Bundesliga - six poins clear of Bayern München. Poulsen and RB Leipzig are sitting fourth.
