Football Bundesliga: Dortmund’s scorer Serhou Guirassy cracks Unions Bollwerk

He hits and meets and meets: Borussia Dortmund was able to rely on Serhou Guirassy again in the game against 1. FC Union Berlin in the game against 1. FC Union Berlin. But in the 3: 0 (1: 0) victory of BVB – Felix Nmecha in the 81st minute, not only the striker, who scored two goals (44th minute/58.).

The week at BVB was extremely eventful, against Union she received a crowning glory. Trainer Niko Kovac had extended his contract early until 2027, and Fabio Silva (cameWolverhampton Wanderers), Carney Chukwuemeka and Aaron Anselmino (both FC Chelsea) Three new players to Dortmund – from whom Anselmino moved directly into the starting eleven.

Dortmunds Guirassy initially with unusual Final weakness

After the disappointing 3: 3 after 3: 1 lead at FC St. Pauli, BVB wanted to prevent a false start, but the Berliners showed that after the 2-1 opening success against VfB Stuttgart, they had traveled to Dortmund with a very wide breast. The team of coach Steffen Baumgart surprised with an offensive approach, had the game control and several dangerous attacks in the initial phase, but the last pass was missing.

But BVB had the first good chance. However, Guirassy only missed the right time to pass, then the angle became too pointed and the striker promoted the ball during his shot on the stands (16th). Guirassy’s opportunity in the 23rd minute, when Tom Rothe had failed, was even larger, he failed freely to Frederik Rönnow and failed to tunnel the goalkeeper.

BVB scorer crowns convincing Dortmund performance

Dortmund was not in the lead, but now fully involved and the better team. Union withdrew – but the game against Stuttgart had already shown how comfortable the “iron” feel when they can focus on defending. After corner, however, the BVB became dangerous, Guirassy initially scored a goal that was not given because of a foul by Anselmino to Rönnow (32nd), then the attacker headed over (37.).

And then the Union Plan almost opened again. Anselmino failed with an excessive header towards Gregor Kobel, but Andrej Ilic missed the great opportunity to lead the guests, shot hooded and clearly past the Dortmund gate (41st).

That was already revenge immediately afterwards. Yan Couto dribbled heavily on the right, flanked and found Guirassy in the middle, of course, who prevailed against Rothe Robust and achieved the deserved lead from four meters (44.).

What Union Ilic does not do, does Guirassy again

It was in danger after the restart. After a corner kick by Christopher Trimmel, Ilic came to the header from six meters quite freely, but Kobel was able to fend off with a reflex because Union striker could not put the ball placed enough (47.). Ilic left the Berlin chances of equalizing – and his Dortmund counterpart set out for him how to score goals.

After the most beautiful attack by the game, the duel between Guirassy and Rönnow, which the BVB goalkeeper with a chip overlooked 2-0 (58.), was casually overlooked. For Guirassy it was already the fourth goal in the third competitive game of the season, the Dortmund life insurance of the past season (cross -competition 38 goals) also delivers in the new one.

Dortmund’s Anselmino is celebrated after a strong debut against Union

The appearance of Anselmino was symbolical, which, apart from the one mistake in the Ilic chance, made a very good impression. In the 72nd and 73rd minute, the newcomer clarified twice with strong grätschen as the last man.
