Haal’s well that ends well Braut
ERLING BRAUT HAALAND ended his Bundesliga goal drought with a double as Borussia Dortmund ran riot against VfL Wolfsburg.
A ruthless display yesterday saw Dortmund hammer Wolfsburg 6-1 as Marco Rose’s side moved to within six points of leaders Bayern Munich ahead of next weekend’s Der Klassiker.
Bayern can restore their advantage against Arminia Bielefeld today but a rampant Dortmund showed they won’t go down without a fight with five firsthalf goals.
Teenager Tom Rothe opened the scoring on his league debut and Axel Witsel, Manuel
Akanji and Emre
Can also struck. Haaland ended his five-match goalless run by sweeping home in the 38th minute with the Norwegian striking after the break before Ridle Baku’s consolation.
In Italy, Juventus’ push for the Champions League was derailed despite Dusan Vlahovic’s 95th minute strike to rescue a 1-1 draw against nine-man Bologna.
Marko Arnautovic struck in the 52nd minute before Bologna saw Adama Soumaoro and Gary Medel red-carded – and Vlahovic (below) punished them. Meanwhile, Marseille fans have been banned from tonight’s Ligue 1 match against leaders Paris Saint-Germain because of the “animosity”.
