Borussia Dortmund player ratings from 4-1 win over Hertha Berlin
By Tushar Bahl
Julian Brandt (7/10)
Brandt continued his fine run of form by scoring Borussia Dortmund’s fourth goal. He also helped initiate the opening two goals and delivered another solid all-round performance.
Karim Adeyemi (8/10)
Adeyemi did really well to flick home the opening goal for Borussia Dortmund. He then delivered an inch-perfect cross for Donyell Malen’s goal despite suffering a hamstring injury just before his cross.
Donyell Malen (7/10)
Malen marked his return to the starting XI by opening his goalscoring account for the season in the Bundesliga. Playing in a more central role, the Dutchman showed great awareness to get on the end of Adeyemi’s cross and find the back of the net. He was kept quiet in the second half before being replaced by Sebastien Haller.
Jamie Bynoe-Gittens (6/10)
Bynoe-Gittens came off the bench for Adeyemi in the first half and struggled to make an impact for large parts of the game. But he did really well to dribble past multiple defenders and set up Brandt for his side’s fourth goal.
