Borussia Dortmund beat chief rival Schalke on Saturday as the Bundesliga resumed following a two month hiatus because of the global coronavirus pandemic.
No fans? No problem. The Bundesliga’s biggest rivalry match more than lived up to the billing as Borussia Dortmund crushed Schalke 4-0 on Saturday in German soccer’s hotly anticipated return to action amid the global coronavirus crisis.
Erling Haaland, Raphael Guerreiro and Thorgan Hazard scored goals for BVB en route to the Revierderby win, which was played inside Dortmund’s empty 81,000-seat Westfalenstadion.
¡GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL del Borussia Dortmund! Erling Braut Haaland (28') hizo el primer tanto tras la reanudación de Bundesliga. La asistencia fue de Thorgan Hazard, pero el toque que rompió a la visita lo dio Julian Brandt. Gran acción colectiva. Dortmund 1-0 Schalke 04.
