- BVB defeat Osnabrück 6:0
Borussia Dortmund put on a clinic in yesterday’s friendly against VfL Osnabrück highlighted by a 4-goal performance from Jacob Bruun Larsen. The Danish winger scored his four goals in just 40 minutes proving that he is a real option for BVB’s starting eleven when the Bundesliga resumes next Friday.
BVB started with a midfield consisting of Weigl, Kagawa and Götze and all three of them played well. Weigl was his usual self, dropping deep and facilitating Dortmund’s build up. Meanwhile Kagawa and Götze proved to be able to provide the creative spark that BVB were dearly missing against Hannover. At this point either one of them could easily replace Dahoud in the starting eleven.
In addition Sergio Gomez put on a show in the first half scoring once and setting up countless chances from the right winger position. Paco Alcacer made his debut for the black and yellows and was solid but it was obvious that he will still need time to get on the same page with his new teammates.
In the second half BVB lost a bit of it’s focus also due to many substitutions but they still managed to score once (Philipp) to finish with a 6:0 scoreline.
