(Reuters) - Borussia Dortmund are confident their away goal will be enough to carry them past Juventus despite defensive blunders that saw them lose 2-1 in their Champions League Round of 16 first leg in Turin in Tuesday.

Dortmund have only themselves to blame for leaving the Italian city with a defeat, with both of Juve's goals exposing a napping defence in an otherwise solid performance by the Germans, especially in a strong first half.
