Borussia Dortmund vs. Atalanta kickoff time delayed due to traffic

Borussia Dortmund's Champions League playoff first leg against Atalanta was pushed back by 15 minutes after Dortmund's arrival was delayed.

Due to heavy traffic, Dortmund was unable to reach its home stadium, Signal Iduna Park, at its planned time.

As a result, the decision was taken to move the kickoff from 9 p.m. local time to 9:15 p.m. (3:15 p.m. ET).

"Due to the delayed arrival of our team, the kickoff is postponed by 15 minutes," Dortmund said on social media.
