Borussia Dortmund Secures Victory, Keeping Eintracht Frankfurt Scoreless

2024-08-25

Borussia Dortmund delivered an impressive performance, netting two goals while keeping a clean sheet against Eintracht Frankfurt at Signal Iduna Park in the Bundesliga. The match concluded with a commanding 2-0 victory for the home side.

The first half finished 0-0, and it took until the 72nd minute before Jamie Bynoe-Gittens gave Borussia Dortmund the lead with an assist by Pascal Groß. The 2-0 goal came in extra time, when Jamie Bynoe-Gittens found the net again for Borussia Dortmund, this time assisted by Ramy Bensebaini.

The game saw Dortmund fans audibly quieter than usual during the team's Bundesliga opener, following a protest over their club's controversial sponsorship deal with Düsseldorf-based arms manufacturer Rheinmetall. "Our values rolled over by a tank," read a banner, after a dummy tank was placed outside the stadium.

Up next, Borussia Dortmund face Werder Bremen on 31 August, Heidenheim on 13 September, and VfB Stuttgart (away) on 22 September. Eintracht Frankfurt will take on TSG Hoffenheim on 31 August, VfL Wolfsburg on 14 September, and Borussia Mönchengladbach (home) on 21 September.
