Interesting so far. Hertha looking clever and composed except for the keeper (Kraft, not Klinsmann, who is probably very composed on the bench). Pulisic not creating much yet, Sancho not getting as involved as I'd like in his first start, Kagawa not playing well yet, Schurrle is slow.
Pulisic gets a yellow in the 29th minute. It was a very soft yellow right outside the box on the right channel.
Yellow to Pulisic on a foul just outside the box. He might have been a little late going after a not quite 50-50 ball, but also a bit of a flailing dive by the attacker.
All of referee's mistakes going the same way so far - incorrect corner call for Berlin leads to a header just wide.
For the first time in what 10 years? Dortmund play like a typical, boring bundesliga team. Good Job whoever you are new interim coach!
Great opportunity as Sancho gets into the box and crosses across the 6 for Schurrle/Pulisic, but defender gets a foot to it.
Dortmund at their most frustrating pretend like there is someone in the box to cross towards and attempt relentlessly.
CP making some early, sophisticated runs into the box. Sadly, I think only Dembo would have the talent/vision to play those early balls into the box.
Aggressive off the ball run by Pulisic up the middle. Weigl tries to pick it out with the perfect pass, and plays an imperfect one instead. Close.
the pass should have been the player before Weigl. By the time he tried to go to CP, it was too late.
I've never seen Dortmund play so slow, so afraid, so deep. Kagaway in midfield seems incongruous with his skill set. he needs to be almost touching penalty box for quick flick ons.
