🔥 Football fans, brace yourselves! In an electrifying derby, Serhou Guirassy was the hero of the night as Borussia Dortmund pulled off an incredible 4-2 comeback victory over local rivals Bochum. 🎉
From Down and Out to Ultimate Comeback
Dortmund entered the match with heavy pressure after a tough 5-1 loss to Stuttgart last week. The tension was palpable for new coach Nuri Sahin, and things didn't start well. Bochum stunned everyone by scoring two quick goals in the first half!
In just five minutes, Matus Bero slotted in a slick one-two through the center to put Bochum ahead. Then, Dani de Wit made it 2-0 after Myron Boadu stole the ball from Dortmund's goalkeeper Gregor Kobel. On the sidelines, Sahin couldn't hide his frustration, throwing his arms up in disbelief. 😱
Guirassy to the Rescue
Just when hope seemed lost, Guirassy headed home a crucial goal right before halftime, cutting the deficit to 2-1. The momentum shifted, and the Yellow Wall roared back to life! 🟡⚫️
Early in the second half, a clumsy foul on Guirassy earned Dortmund a penalty. Emre Can stepped up and coolly leveled the score at 2-2. Game on! 🔥
Sealing the Victory
Dortmund wasn't done yet. Karim Adeyemi sliced through Bochum's defense with a perfect through-ball to Guirassy, who didn't miss, slotting it between goalkeeper Patrick Drewes' legs to make it 3-2. Boom! 💥
To cap it off, Felix Nmecha took advantage of a fumble by Drewes, and his shot trickled over the line for Dortmund's fourth goal. The comeback was complete! 🎯
Looking Ahead
With this win, Dortmund climbs to second in the Bundesliga table with 10 points from five games, trailing only Bayern Munich. They're gearing up to face Celtic in the UEFA Champions League next week. Bring it on! 🏆
Meanwhile, Bochum finds themselves second-to-last with just one point under new coach Peter Zeidler. Tough times ahead. 😔
Stay tuned for more thrilling football action! ⚽️
