Borussia Dortmund came away with a 1-0 win against Hertha Berlin at the Olympiastadion on Saturday afternoon.

Borussia Dortmund managed to get back to winning ways this past Saturday as they took on Hertha Berlin in their fourth game of the Bundesliga season. The game itself was a very open affair with both teams having a number of chances to swing the game in their favor.

With both attacks really piling on the pressure, the game became an exercise in defensive solidity, and really put both keepers to work in terms of keeping their respective sides in contention for all three points. Gregor Kobel was once again phenomenal, but Hertha’s keeper Oliver Christensen was also very much in fine form, doing a profound job in terms of keeping Dortmund quiet.

BVB newcomer Anthony Modeste was however able to break the deadlock in the 32nd minute. The Frenchman’s goal would thankfully be enough to get Die Schwarzgelben over the line this time. Lets take a look at some of the key talking points this game had on offer.
