Dortmund. Mauer Kick – but won! Borussia Dortmund beats Hertha BSC 1-0 (0-0) in a tired top game and cemented after the point losses from Leipzig, Leverkusen and Gladbach 2nd place.
The golden gate for Borussia Dortmund against Hertha BSC shot Emre Can (58.), previously Jadon Sancho had sensationally opened the opening goal.
Borussia Dortmund – Hertha BSC: Can stays cold
BVB started against Hertha as in Paderborn – sluggishly and without the necessary pressure. Until half-time there was no real goal chance thanks to clean defending Berliners.
After the change of sides, Jadon Sancho only gave a free-standing contract before he took the lead with a sugar campaign. The Englishman let two men get out, chip softly into the penalty area on Brandt, who tipped on Can. The winter new arrival remained cold, wetted in the bottom right.
Afterwards, Hertha had to come more, brought little real chances, but hardly left anything behind. So it remained with the narrow victory.

Enough! BVB saves the tight leadership on the line. A little handsome game is over. Have a nice evening!
90 .: Sancho dribbles well into the penalty area, has a huge chance after a double pass with Reyna to 2: 0 – but Jarstein parried strongly.
88 .: Double change Hertha. The substituted Esswein must go out again. His joy is limited.
85 .: Five minutes plus X still. A meager top game is coming to an end. What else is happening?
80 .: Balerdi replaces Hazard – Favre apparently wants to secure the lead. At the same time, Morey replaced Witsel.
78 .: A sudden downpour started in Dortmund. It pours from buckets.
76 .: Esswein lets Reyna fly with a tackle and sees yellow for it. The subsequent free kick brings nothing.
71 .: Berlin is more pricked than unsettled by the backlog. Hertha now with a little more possession and, above all, some train to the goal.
68 .: Favre’s first change: Reyna comes for Brandt, who has had a rather meager day today except for the assist.
65 .: Since he came on, Ngankam has been particularly striking because of his very robust physical work. Now he hits the hazard with his hip. The yellow still remains in the pocket …
62 .: Labbadia reacts and changes. Winter newcomer Piatek comes for Skjelbred.
58th TOOOOOOR for BVB!
Emre Can puts the favorite in front – but this turn especially Sanchp enchants. The Englishman nibbles two Herthanians, chips the ball perfectly against all directions into the penalty area on Brandt. He lays across Can, which is ice cold and slides in at the bottom right.
55 .: Esswein with the best Hertha chance. In the event of a quick counter-move, the substitute is sent steeply to the right, pulls out of full speed and only just misses the long post from a half-right position.
53 .: BVB is now building up increasing pressure.
51 .: Huge opportunity for BVB. A flat, sharp cross from Hakimi rushes through, Brandt sticks it from the other side back into Sancho, who is standing next to the box six meters in front of the goal.
48 .: Hertha with the approach of a quick counterattack. Esswein’s chip in the penalty area spins into the goal.
46 minutes: Go on! The guest has changed, Ngankam replaces Lukebakio in the lead.
Break! An extremely poor first half has ended. No pressure, no pace, no chances on both sides. You could call it Larifari football. The good news is that both teams can only improve. Hertha should be quite happy with herself. Nothing goes to the front, but everything is stable in the back.
41 .: The last five minutes of the first round have started. We could expect a lot more from this game.
37 .: Significantly. BVB gets a free kick 17 meters before the goal on the right flank after a foul. Guerreiro starts and beats the egg far over the gate.
30 .: Shock for Hertha. Dilrosun collided with Brandt, bit his teeth for a few minutes. But it doesn’t go on. The youngster from Berlin gives way to Alexander Esswein.
28 .: A really tired kick so far. BVB is having a hard time. This is how it looked in Paderborn last Sunday. Final score: 6: 1.
22 .: First real chance of the game. Guerreiro crosses, Torunarigha unintentionally extends his head to Hazard, who shoots at it from a standing position. Repelled.
20 .: Mittelstädt conquered the ball twice in the Dortmund half. Both times, however, his first alliance partner refined the ball. Would annoy me.
16 .: Very sluggish start here of a game by two teams in top form. Dortmund has the game control, but makes little of it. Also because Hertha takes care of defending very conscientiously.
9 .: Dortmund presses the accelerator for the first time. Sancho serves Hakimi on the right, who starts to sprint, but then shoots from a rather acute angle to the outside network. There is kick.
4 .: The bank of the BVB is worth mentioning: In addition to the experienced warriors Hitz and Schmelzer, Balerdi, Morey, Rente, Führich, Pherai, Raschl and Reyna are basically only 12-year-olds.
1st minute: Now let’s go! Hertha pushes, hits a long ball forward and loses it directly.
6:29 pm: Goosebumps statement! All players, even those responsible for both clubs, kneel on one knee – a sign of the “Black Lives Matter” movement and of the murdered George Floyd.
6:28 pm: Hertha wins the side choice and decides to kick off. In a few moments it starts.
6.10 p.m .: Mario Götze is not in the squad. There is a good reason for this: He has taken his wife Ann-Kathrin to the hospital – the birth of the first child is imminent.
17:54: Axel Witsel is starting at BVB for the first time after the Corona break.
5.50 p.m .: Never change a winning team: Bruno Labbadia sends the same team as in the win against Augsburg.
5.40 p.m .: Hairdressers Akanji and Sancho are in the starting eleven at BVB. Erling Haaland is missing, however. The Norwegian didn’t get fit in time.
5:36 p.m .: The lineups are there:
Borussia Dortmund: Bürki – Piszczek, Can, Akanji – Hakimi, Witsel, Delaney, Guerreiro – Sancho, Brandt – T. Hazard
Hertha BSC: Jarstein – Pekarik, Boyata, Torunarigha, Mittelstädt – Grujic, Skjelbred – Lukebakio, Darida, Dilrosun – Ibisevic
5.22 p.m .: There is still good news from the competition for BVB fans: RB Leipzig continues its negative home series against Paderborn. Due to a late goal Christian Strohdieck, the “Red Bulls” only play 1-1 against the bottom – the fourth consecutive draw at home.
4:59 p.m .: Bayern then turned the game in Leverkusen with all dominance, leading 4: 1 20 minutes before the end. So for Borussia Dortmund against Hertha BSC it’s all about reducing the gap to seven points.
3.45 p.m .: Will the championship race be exciting again? Leverkusen take the lead against Bayern. If the leader loses, BVB could score four points by beating Hertha.
11.41 a.m .: Harm Osmers will lead the game today. Both teams had the pleasure with him this season. Under his leadership, BVB won 5-1 against Cologne. He even ran a Hertha game three times. The result: two draws (against Bayern and Gladbach) and one victory (against Union Berlin).

2.39 p.m .: Michael Zorc said: “We are not defending the visit to the hairdresser, we are just trying to clear it up. Of course, it is always important to comply with the hygiene regulations. I don’t understand that photos are taken and posted by something. There was a violation of the obligation to wear a mask. “
