Pulisic starts: Dortmund v Hertha (Klinsy bench)

Pulisic with nice skill to beat his mark at the edge of the box and lets a shot fly toward the corner, but it's well saved by Kraft.

 

Again CP breaks down man and makes positive attacking play.

 

This ref is an L7 wienie.

 

He dribbled into 4 dudes! He didn't beat anyone.

Looking much more dangerous since then, though.

 

Ah, Kagawa.. Too slow and possibly in the way.

 

not every run comes off. Someone has to beat that defense backline. Sometimes you try things.

 

Kalou robbed by his own teammate, should be 2-0 Hertha. Schurrle needs to come off.

 

Berlin goal called back for offside. Dortmund lucky that the Berlin player was ahead of the ball on the pass ... he didn't need to be. Just sloppy.

 

Pulisic beats a man down the line and is pulled down. I thought it was a card, no foul.

 

Ref letting them play...then falls for every hertha dive. frustrating.

 

Coach needs to decide if he wants Goetze or Kagawa to steer the attack.

Edit: Goetze off

 

CP gets dispossessed a couple times in the last few minutes

 

Isak for Gotze. Maybe Schurrle moving to midfield?

 

Pulisic nifty ball to split defenders and set up a Schurrle cross, comes to nothing.

 

Pulisic with a nice flick to Schurrle..

 

Better from CP, picks out Schurrle who sends a cross across the PK spot

 

omg kagawa what are you doinggggggggggg

 

(scoring haha)

 

Sancho works super hard and gets a cross into the back post where Kagawa is well positioned to head it home, 1-1.

 

GOAL - Sancho earns incredibly stupid turnover deep on left wing, eventually crosses over Pulisic's head to wide open Kagawa at back post. Kagawa makes no mistake with easy header.

 

you can see CP is trying to make those Auba runs but it's difficult to replicate that 9 instinct especially arriving from the RW position.

 

Also, no one has made an accurate pass into one of those runs all game.

 

shirly runs like a req league player. He used to glide.Talk about death of a promising career.

 

Yeah, i noted that earlier. With Kagawa so deep and dembo not there...there's no attacking magic.

 

Nice combination between Isak and Sancho, but lacked an end product
