Marco Reus and Nuri Sahin shake hands after the match

Marco Reus looked delighted after Borussia Dortmund improved their recent form to beat Mainz 4-2 in the Bundesliga at the weekend, so much so that he embarked on a round of handshakes for his team-mates.

But what was quickly revealed is that each player has their own, secret handshake, and knows exactly what to do when the forward reaches out to them.

Reus was at his best on Friday night as he scored a goal of his own and laid on an assist for striker Pierre Emerick Aubameyang, who put Dortmund 3-2 up and on the way to a rare victory in the Bundesliga this season.
