Serhou Guirassy’s historic hat-trick against Barcelona on Tuesday night propelled him to the top of Borussia Dortmund’s UEFA Champions League scoring charts.
A Record-Breaking Performance
Guirassy’s three goals in Dortmund’s 3-1 win over Barcelona, although not enough to secure a spot in the next round, marked a significant milestone for the 29-year-old striker. He now holds the record for most goals scored by a Dortmund player in a single Champions League season with 12.
This achievement puts Guirassy in an elite group, surpassing the previous record of 10 goals set by Robert Lewandowski in 2012-2013 and Erling Haaland in 2020-2021. Notably, Guirassy accomplished this feat with Lewandowski on the opposing team.
A Season to Remember
Guirassy’s impressive performance was a highlight of an otherwise disappointing night for Dortmund, who were eliminated from the Champions League. Despite the team’s loss, Guirassy’s record-breaking hat-trick will be remembered as a standout moment in their season.
