BVB: International press celebrates Erling Haaland
In the end there were only four scorer points for Erling Haaland, as the DFL did not consider the deflected shot to be a third assist for the Norwegian before the 5-1 in the meantime. In the end, there were two goals and two assists for the 21-year-old, who now has 80 scorer points for the black and yellow in 61 competitive games.
Sky-Expert Lothar Matthäus went into raptures for a reason: “He brings this winning win that Dortmund missed for a few years. And that’s why BVB is a very big competitor for Bayern Munich and RB Leipzig for the championship,” said the German record international .
But also across Europe one took notice of the new lightning start of the Norwegian. the L’Equipe described the performance as “imperial”, the Spanish Mundo Deportivo called it a “clap of thunder”. Also the Marca couldn’t get out of the enthusiasm: “For one of the most unique strikers, nothing seems impossible. (…) He is simply complete.”
BVB: Goals conceded as blemishes
But not only Haaland was celebrated, BVB’s first Bundesliga appearance under new coach Marco Rose made people want more. “What they achieved, how they played – with emotions, speed, great passing game – was unique,” said Matthäus. “They deserve the applause of the fans.”
The only downer was the two goals against, one of them after a set piece. “These are also things that the coach will work on,” says Matthäus with certainty.
However, the record national player does not see BVB as the title favorites. Bayern are still “best positioned” at the top, at least when it comes to the “first 14, 15 players” in the team.
