Borussia Dortmund Frauen cruise to 8-0 win in first ever competitive game

Borussia Dortmund Frauen made history on Sunday as they played their first ever competitive game. And they celebrated the occasion with an emphatic 8-0 win in their Kreisliga A clash against BV Brambauer.

A total of 1,625 spectators, including Mats Hummels and Marcel Schmelzer, were in attendance to watch Borussia Dortmund Frauen play their first ever competitive game at the Rote Erde stadium on Sunday afternoon. And thousands more tuned in to watch the game live on the club’s Twitch channel. The BVB women’s team made their Kreisliga A debut against BV Brambauer and enjoyed a dominant 8-0 win.

The performance was certainly worthy of the momentous occasion, and the Borussia Dortmund Frauen showed that they are ready to take the first step towards promotion to the Frauen-Bundesliga this season.

The Black and Yellows dominated the game right from the first whistle and the majority of the game was played in the Brambauer half. The first competitive goal in the team’s history arrived in the 31st minute, with Ana Zabell volleying the ball into the back of the net from a corner. Vanessa Heim then made it 2-0 soon after with a fine strike into the bottom corner.

The floodgates opened up in the second half, with Virginia Glänzer scoring BVB Frauen’s third goal with an excellent finish from the edge of the box. Hannah Goosmann then made it 4-0, before Vanessa Heim doubled her tally.

Ann-Kathrin Lau, who had scored the first ever goal in Borussia Dortmund Frauen’s history last month, then got on the scoresheet in the 76th minute. Ana Zabell found the bottom corner for her second goal of the afternoon three minutes from time. And captain Lisa Klemann then put the icing on the cake by making it 8-0 in stoppage time.

It was a truly special performance by the Borussia Dortmund Frauen. And this afternoon will be fondly remembered by the players, coaches and fans alike for years to come.
