"He's too good" - Internet reacts as Sabitzer struck a sensational free-kick to send BVB through in German Cup

Borussia Dortmund star Marcel Sabitzer sent Werder Bremen packing from the DFB-Pokal after scoring a wonderful free-kick in stoppage-time to win it 3-2 for his side.

The BVB had conceded their two-goal advantage earlier in the game in a repeat of their collapse against the side during their Bundesliga meeting on 9 October.

However, Niko Kovac's side were handed a lifeline in the dying seconds when Felix Nmecha won a free-kick after drawing a foul out of Senne Lynen.

Sabizter stepped up to take it and went for goal himself, curling a delicate shot into the near post beyond Bremen goalkeeper Karl Hein's dispairing dive.

Having come under a barrage of criticisms this season, the Austrian silenced all the noise with that beauty, with fans now raving about his strike.

Here are some of the best reactions on X:

Popular football page EuroFoot shared a clip of the goal and called it 'incredible':

"🚨🇦🇹 Marcel Sabitzer (32) scored this winning goal in the 93rd minute to send Borussia Dortmund to the next stage of the DFB Pokal. INCREDIBLE. 😍🏆"

Tekkers Foot had the same adjective for Sabitzer's moment of magic from the dead-ball:

"🏆😍 Marcel Sabitzer scored this incredible free kick in the 93rd minute to send Borussia Dortmund into the next round of the DFB-Pokal. ⚫️🟡💫"

Parallels were drawn with Sabitzer's winner against Atletico Madrid in the Champions League:

"And Marcel Sabitzer summoned the spirit of the Champions League.

With a free kick, right at the death, he buried it in the top corner—once again securing a 3-2 win for Borussia Dortmund in a cup competition.

Yes, just like against Atlético Madrid on that memorable night."

One X user shared a clip of Niko Kovac's reaction to the winner and wrote that the BVB manager saw it coming:

"He knew his great Marcel Sabitzer was going to save the game."

A verified fan account dedicated to Borussia Dortmund called Lafonate tweeted:

"Some BVB fans should perhaps just wait for the final whistle before making fun of a perfectly normal halftime tweet from me (something I don’t understand anyway).

In the end, fucking Marcel #Sabitzer comes along and absolutely tears you all apart."

French media Foot Mercato also reacted, writing:

"Marcel Sabitzer's free kick last night to send Dortmund through to the round of 16 in the German Cup 🤩🐝

He's too good."

Football Tweet perfectly encapsulated the scale of the moment here:

"🚨 The score is 2-2. It's the last minute of the game and Dortmund have a free-kick in a brilliant position.

Up steps Marcel Sabitzer to send Borussia Dortmund through to the next round of the DFB-Pokal.

What a way to win it. 🤯🏆🇦🇹"
