Borussia Dortmund have secured their first victory of the season with a comfortable 2-0 win over SC Freiburg at Signal Iduna Park on Saturday evening.

The match saw the two teams go head-to-head for the first time since the 2018/19 Bundesliga campaign, with Dortmund coming out victorious thanks to goals from French forward Florian Thauvin and Nigerian striker Leon Baala.

Thauvin's goal came early in the second half, as he headed home from close range after being set up by defender Raphael Guerreiro. The goal was a testament to Dortmund's defensive prowess, with goalkeeper Roman Buerkner making several crucial saves to keep the game under control.

Baala's goal in the 75th minute sealed the win for Dortmund, as he scored his first goal for the club following a strong run down the left wing. The goal was a fitting reward for the Nigerian striker, who has been performing well this season for the team.

Overall, it was a dominant performance from Borussia Dortmund, who showed why they were so successful last season. Their attacking threat was too much for SC Freiburg to handle, and they will be looking to build on this victory going into the next round of fixtures.
