Borussia Dortmund reacts to the defeat against Lazio Roma with a 3-0 in the Revierderby against Schalke. Manuel Akanji starts the victory with the opening goal.
Schalke competed with their rivals in Dortmund with the horror record of 20 straight Bundesliga games without a win, but remained the expected stubborn opponent.
For more than half the time, the insecure but vicious Schalke players in the duels in front of the mini-backdrop of 300 spectators on defense allowed hardly anything.
Only a corner in the 55th minute, in which Manuel Akanji, who had returned from the quarantine crown, dusted off after a rebound to 1-0, broke the spell. Shortly after, Erling Haaland scored his fifth goal in the league, later Mats Hummels increased the head after another corner.
Akanji’s second goal for BVB
For national defender Akanji it was BVB’s second goal. The fact that Lucien Favre relied on Roman Bürki instead of Marwin Hitz for Dortmund’s goal after four games was a note at the end. The goalkeeping debate had gained momentum after Lazio’s disappointing 3-1 four days ago, as had renewed criticism of the Swiss manager, fired by the German media after each misstep by the young BVB team.
