Match Report
Borussia Dortmund has stumbled over two victories over Union Berlin. The vice-champion has lost against the promoted away spectacularly 1: 3. The goals were scored by Marius Bülter and Sebastian Andersson for Berlin and Paco Alcácer for BVB. Union thus celebrated its first Bundesliga victory.
For the third time in the third game of the season, Dortmund had to catch up: After a corner kick brought Christopher Trimmel the ball into the backcourt, Marius Bülter scored by direct reception, the first Bundesliga home goal for Union (22). However, the Berliners could only look forward to it briefly. Reus played the ball on the right wing to Sancho, who has plenty of space and hung up for Alcácer, who pushed the ball over the line in the six-foot space unconditionally to compensate.
At the end of the first half Union left the over 70 percent ball possession acting Dortmundern too much space, so that Julian Weigl (post) and Marco Reus still came to opportunities.
