Youssoufa Moukoko scored a late winner as Borussia Dortmund came from behind to seal a stunning 2-1 win over Hertha Berlin.
An emotional day at the Westfalenstadion ended with incredible drama as Borussia Dortmund came from behind to beat Hertha Berlin 2-1. Second half goals from Erling Haaland and Youssoufa Moukoko sank the Berliners, who had taken the lead thanks to Ishak Belfodil’s first half penalty.
Borussia Dortmund’s win, combined with Stuttgart’s 92nd winner against Köln, means that Hertha Berlin will now have to win the two-legged relegation play-off in order to secure their Bundesliga status for next season.
For Borussia Dortmund, it was a fitting end to a very emotional afternoon. The Black and Yellows bid farewell to sporting director Michael Zorc, as well as Marcel Schmelzer, Erling Haaland, Axel Witsel, Dan-Axel Zagadou and Roman Bürki.
Here are our player ratings for the Borussia Dortmund players from their 2-1 win over Hertha Berlin.
Roman Bürki (6/10)
Bürki was surprisingly named in the starting XI and made his first appearance for Borussia Dortmund since May 2021. He did not have a lot to do over the course of the 90 minutes, but dealt with everything that came his way rather easily.
