Ahead of kick off the big news was Lucian Favre's side kicking off without Mario Gotze or Jadon Sancho, with both men starting on the bench.
Without them it wasn't too surprising to see the side struggling to create many chances but once again Haaland showed that he doesn't need too many opportunities to make a difference.
Before half time Dortmund made it 2-0 as Raphaël Guerreiro added the second just as the first half was wrapping up.
As usual Dortmund are chasing Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga, who are going for their eighth tile in-a-row, and before kick off Favre's team were four points behind their rivals.
