Borussia Dortmund easily reached the second round of the DFB Cup. A solid first half was enough for BVB against MSV Duisburg. A blow from Marco Reus on his return was also cause for joy.
Marco Reus scored a lightning goal on his return, teenager Jude Bellingham stood out on his debut: On a near-perfect night, Borussia Dortmund followed coach Lucien Favre’s claim to the title and made it to the second round of the DFB Cup.
Reus hits within seconds
The runner-up won about 50 kilometers from his own door at third division MSV Duisburg with a surprisingly clear 5-0 (2-0). Coach Lucien Favre had declared the cup victory the goal on Sunday, an unusually forceful announcement from the Swiss. After four finals in a row, BVB was eliminated three times in a row in the round of 16.
Reus arrived in the 57th minute for his first competitive match in 223 days and scored half a minute later. When he left the cup on 4 February at Werder Bremen, he subsequently suffered a very persistent adductor injury. In addition to Jadon Sancho (14th, hand penalty), Thorgan Hazard (39th) and Axel Witsel (50th), the new signing Bellingham (30th) also gathered, who also impressed in the defensive midfield with calm and technique. The 17-year-old only paid a hard time for a yellow card because he hit the ball (21); That’s probably why he had to go out for the break.
The ambitious Duisburg suffered a bitter lesson five days before their first league match at Hansa Rostock for long stretches, but had to act outnumbered for more than 50 minutes after the red card against Dominic Volkmer (38th / emergency brake) .
In the first competitive duel between the two Revier clubs in more than twelve years, Favre, after some preparatory experiments with the four behind, offered the successful three from the second half of the previous season. After a few minutes, the favorite took over the game, convinced with the ball relay and was also lucky that everything went well. A penalty showed the way, before Hazard Duisburg’s remarkable free kick was already decimated.
But the BVB showed no sympathy for Revier’s neighbor, who sparked a mid-size commotion after the lost promotion. Before a free kick, Favre brought Reus in, Sancho immediately played over the captain, who caught the ball with his right, shot at goal with his left and then screamed in almost embarrassment. In the final 25 minutes, Reinier’s 18-year loan from Real Madrid made his competitive debut.
