Borussia Dortmund started with a victory in the Bundesliga. Lucien Favre’s team beat Borussia Mönchengladbach 3-0 in the top game of the first round.
Top talents from the home team ensured the difference in a largely equal match between Dortmund and Mönchengladbach. The only 17-year-old Giovanni Reyna untied the knot in BVB’s match in the 34th minute with his first Bundesliga goal, which showed some difficulty at first. The goal was prepared by the English debutant Jude Bellingham, like 17-year-old Reyna.
Erling Haaland, who has now scored 15 goals in 16 league games for Dortmund, was worried about the 2-0, 3-0 victory. The 20-year-old Norwegian first scored the penalty spot (54th) after Reyna was fouled. With the third goal, the highlight of the match, he took advantage of the preparatory work of Jadon Sancho, who had run more than 70 meters. The English were also born after the turn of the millennium.
The fans in Dortmund (9,300 were admitted) got a sneak peek of what to expect this season. Even if the result was ultimately too clear, Favre’s ensemble hinted at what it is capable of. Mönchengladbach’s guests, who had to dispense with injured Breel Embolo and Denis Zakaria, only had two chances to score. BVB goalkeeper Roman Bürki showed strong saves both against Florian Neuhaus (32nd) and when Stefan Lainer fired (42nd).
