Former Super Eagles striker, Efan Ekoku, has revealed that Germany international Mats Hummels was at fault for the second goal conceded by Borrussia Dortmund in their 3-1 loss to Barcelona on Wednesday night.<\/p>\n

Lionel Messi scored in the 33 minute after a terrible mistake from Hummels, who attempted passing the ball to Frenkie de Jong but it was intercepted by a Barcelona player.<\/p>\n

Speaking on BT Sport, Ekoku said, \u201cFor a player of his experience, Mats Hummels, that\u2019s unforgivable.<\/p>\n
