Borussia Dortmund did not miss Erling Haaland against Augsburg who won 2-1, thus returning to the path of victory in the Bundesliga. A week after being defeated in the Borussia Mönchengladbach fiefdom, Guerreiro and Julian Brandt gave important three points to the black-yellow team that serve to re-engage in the noble zone of the table in Germany. And, also, it helped him to realize that he can get ahead without the help of the Norwegian kĂller, in the stands due to a muscle injury.
He started out by dominating the BVB and was quick to capitalize on his superiority. Malen, who had made his debut as a scorer in his new club against Sporting in the Champions League, It caused a penalty that Guerreiro took advantage of to put the bees ahead on the scoreboard. Followed the domain borusser, yes, without reaching the Bavarian frame with too much danger and was punished for his lack of momentum after half an hour of play. Meier slammed the leather off the crossbar and Zeqiri was on the lookout to take advantage of the rebound and set the boards. Dortmund had been warned.
And he reacted as soon as the second period began. A counter executed like a charm ended up in Brandt’s boots and, immediately afterwards, in the back of the Augsburg net. The goal was deserved by the dominance that Borussia exercised throughout the game and they could fall more in a second half in which Rose’s men had too many opportunities, but they were not at the height of propping up the Swabian team. Zeqiri, even, returned to put the tables in a play that was invalidated by lack of the visiting forward. Haaland saw in the box at Signal Iduna Park how theirs, despite the numerous chances they had, had to tremble until a final whistle that placed them second while waiting for Leverkusen to do on Sunday in Bielefeld.
