Borussia Dortmund player ratings from 2-0 win over Werder Bremen: Zagadou, Haaland seal crucial win
By Tushar Bahl
Achraf Hakimi (6.5/10)
Another hard-working display by Hakimi, who never stopped running despite not always being precise with his final pass. He did not always look assured defensively, and lost the ball on a few of occasions, often unnecessarily. But he got the assist for Haaland’s goal with a nice cut-back, and nearly made it 3-0 late on.
Axel Witsel (6.5/10)
The Belgian put in another hard working shift for his team. He helped out defensively and kept control of the midfield, making sure that Bremen weren’t able to hurt Dortmund on the counter attack.
Emre Can (7.5/10)
Can once again did a lot of the dirty work for his side, allowing those in front of him to profit. The German international made some important tackles, won the majority of his duels and wasn’t afraid to commit fouls whenever he deemed it necessary. He is like a mad dog who will do whatever it takes for the team, and Borussia Dortmund are better off with him in the middle of the park.
Raphael Guerreiro (6.5/10)
Another quietly solid display by Guerreiro, who continues to perform consistently for the team. Guerreiro worked hard for the team, defended well and also came close with an excellent set-piece delivery in the first half.
