BERLIN (AP) – Serhou Guirassy fired Borussia Dortmund into the second round of the German Cup, winning 1-0 at nearby Rottweiss-essen on Monday.<\/p>\n
However, the Dortmund celebration was settled by a bad tackle when he caught the knee on the back of his wing with the sole of his boots at the stop time of Essen’s Kelsey Oss tribe Jan Koot. Koot was carried over the stretcher with his hands on his face.<\/p>\n
Dortmund already had no injured defenders Niklas Thread<\/span>Nico Schlotterbeck and Emre Can. The team will hold a Bundesliga campaign in St. Pauli on Saturday.<\/p>\nGuinea star Guilassi avoided the defender in the 79th minute and slammed the ball on the turn.<\/p>\n
The goal came after Essen, who played in the third division, the 1955 German champion.<\/p>\n
Dortmund’s Julian brand attacked the side net, and fellow alternative Jobe Bellingham caused defensive issues for Essen after it was introduced on the 64th. It was the first appearance of Bellingham’s competition for Dortmund in German soil since he Summer travel from Sunderland<\/span>.<\/p>\nDortmund’s coach Niko Kova\u010d led Eintracht Frankfurt to the title in 2018, and repeated the feats at Bayern Munich the following year.<\/p>\n
Mainz victory in Dresden<\/h2>\n
Nadiem Adli’s great free kick was enough for Mainz to overcome Dynamo Dresden 1-0 and 1-0.<\/p>\n
The former German midfielder lifted the ball from the defensive wall and left post in the 22nd minute, making it the only goal in a game where second division club Dresden missed more opportunities.<\/p>\n
Mainz coach Bo Henriksen was sent late to grab the ball as tensions grew in the nervous finale.<\/p>\n
Herta is penalty<\/h2>\n
Sebastian Gr\u00f6nning scored a winning spot kick for Hertha Berlin, 5-3 against second division rival Prue\u00dfen M\u00fcnster, and advanced 5-3 on penalties after the match ended scoreless with an extra time.<\/p>\n
The home team had much larger 27 shots in goal compared to Hertha’s 11, but they couldn’t count any of them.<\/p>\n
Additionally, Fortuna D\u00fcsseldorf won the Schweinfurt 4-2 in three divisions.<\/p>\n
There are very few surprises<\/h2>\n
defense Champion Stuttgart<\/span> And league champion Bayern postponed their cup game for their participation German Super Cup<\/span> Saturday. Stuttgart will begin title defense at Eintracht Braunschweig on August 26th, with Bayern playing third division Wehen Wiesbaden the following day.<\/p>\nIn the first round, there was little shock to Werder Bremen, the only Bundesliga team to be decommissioned. Arminia Bielefeld provided one of the few scatterings as he knocked out a host of Bundesliga clubs on his way to the finals last season. Knock out Bremen again<\/span> on friday. <\/p>\n___<\/p>\n
