Dortmund defeats Augsburg: Guirassy scores a lucky 1-0!
On November 1, 2025, an exciting duel took place in the Bundesliga between Borussia Dortmund and FC Augsburg, which Dortmund won 1-0. The decisive goal was scored by Serhou Guirassy, who was able to capitalize on a mistake in the Augsburg defense. With this victory, Dortmund remains in the race for the title, but will still have to look at FC Bayern, who remain at the top of the table. Ran reports that coach Niko Kovac had to do without several players due to injuries, including defensive players Nico Schlotterbeck and Niklas Süle.
For the game against Augsburg, Kovac decided to initially put Daniel Svensson, Julian Ryerson and Karim Adeyemi on the bench. One reason for this decision could have been the recent poor form of some players. Gregor Kobel, the Dortmund goalkeeper, had a quiet evening with only a few interventions. However, in the 68th minute he was given a yellow card for running out of time - a clear reminder that games are won not only through fight, but also through clever game strategies.
Dortmund presence on the pitch
Particularly noticeable was Yanns Couto, who delivered an excellent cross before half-time but remained vulnerable defensively. Anselmino, another player, initially showed some uncertainty, but improved significantly over the course of the second half. Ramy Bensebaini had little to do in the defensive area, but was actively involved in building up the game. Waldemar Anton in the three-man chain was particularly noticeable for his strength in duels and defended solidly.
Felix Nmecha was present in midfield but was substituted after 62 minutes. His successor, Jobe Bellingham, had a huge impact as he thwarted several of Augsburg's chances. For the other substitutes, Svensson and Ryerson, it remains to be said that they were unable to produce any significant action. Karim Adeyemi came onto the field in stoppage time to buy valuable time.
