BVB vs Union Berlin: Guirassy Shines in Thrilling Win

BVB fetches the first three
Union Berlin can only be amazed at a big Guirassy show

Serhou Guirassy remains the Dortmund life insurance. Against Union Berlin, the 29-year-old attacker succeeds in a double pack. The guests from Köpenick do not find an answer to this, also because a new addition in defense celebrates a strong debut.

Goal hiker Serhou Guirassy saved Borussia Dortmund from a disappointment in the first home game of the new season. In a tough duel with Union Berlin, the team of coach Niko Kovac, which was not completely convincing again, prevailed 3-0 (1-0) through – especially thanks to Guirassy, who was not only because of his two goals (44th, 58th) the outstanding player in the field, but also shone as a never -ended ball distributor (The Guirassy show now on RTL+).

So there was a remarkably solid debut by Argentinian Aaron Anselmino, who was only committed on Wednesday, only a marginal note. But with the new, the defensive triple chain was harmless than at the season opener at FC St. Pauli (3: 3). Goalkeeper Gregor Kobel meanwhile got little work, only after the break did the Swiss be challenged against Andrej Ilic (47th) and Tom Rothe (48th). Felix Nmecha (81.) was still scored for Dortmund.

Carney Chukwuemeka, like Anselmino new to BVB, was initially on the bench, the striker Fábio Silva, who was also hired during the week, was missing due to muscular problems. Jobe Bellingham, on the other hand, was able to go in the Bundesliga for the first time from the start, which, after the curious incident on St. Pauli, when his parents had complained in the cabin tour at BVB sports director Sebastian Kehl.

But Bellingham paid back the trust with a lot of commitment and dynamics – and had to take vigorously. In a header duel with Ilic, he suffered a bleeding wound on the eye. The Dortmund was treated for minutes, but was able to continue the game like its Berlin opponent.

Anselmino celebrates strong debut

It was only after this interruption that Dortmund tore more control and almost benefited from an error Union. But Guirassy, who appeared freely in front of the Union goal after an accident back pass from the former Dortmund Rothe, tried too casual against Frederik Rönnow (23rd).

However, this negligence did not take revenge because Union fought and bite as usual, but remained offensive but completely harmless. At the Dortmund leadership gate, Yan Couto was allowed to flank unexpectedly, Guirassy shook his opponent Leopold across the field and hit effortlessly.

After the break, Union’s chances followed by Ilic and Rothe, but BVB could not be disturbed. Guirassy continued to lead a ball from Anselmino by hoe to Maximilian Beier and chipped his passport worth seeing over Rönnow into the goal.

The hit had an effect among the Berliners, who had reached 0: 6 at the last duel in Dortmund. BVB also limited itself to managing, but thanks to two strong grätschen, Anselmino received special applause from the fans.
