Administrator Stan Posted August 3, 2019 Administrator Posted August 3, 2019 Second bit of action for me to watch in German football this season after seeing a bit of the BL2 opener last week. I'm guessing this is the equivalent of the Community Shield in England?

Administrator Stan Posted August 3, 2019 Administrator Posted August 3, 2019 That Bayern squad has ridiculous talent both as a team and individually. Hoping Dortmund have enough in them to beat them though. Looking forward to wtching Sancho.
Administrator Stan Posted August 3, 2019 Administrator Posted August 3, 2019 Flying start from Dortmund. Nearly 1-0 within 1st minute.
Administrator Stan Posted August 3, 2019 Administrator Posted August 3, 2019 Neuer Never change mate.
Administrator Stan Posted August 3, 2019 Administrator Posted August 3, 2019 Such an open game. Can tell it's pre-season - few bits of sloppy play and quite end-to-end to an extent. If Dortmund had a bit more composure going forward think they'd be winning right now. Hitz just saved well from Muller.
nudge Posted August 3, 2019 Author Posted August 3, 2019 A bit underwhelming with Bayern looking a bit better but lacking the final pass.
Administrator Stan Posted August 3, 2019 Administrator Posted August 3, 2019 GOAL BORUSSIA! Sancho did brilliantly there. Took on a couple of defenders then squared it to Paco Alcacer to drill in low past Neuer. 1-0.
Administrator Stan Posted August 3, 2019 Administrator Posted August 3, 2019 2-0! Dortmund! Provider turns goalscorer. Well defended and well worked out from defence to counter. Sancho had an open route and scored easily.
Administrator Stan Posted August 3, 2019 Administrator Posted August 3, 2019 Very surprised that was only a yellow for Kimmich.

Goes studs up straight into Sancho's ankle outside of the pitch when the game is stopped and only gets a yellow after VAR watches the replay. What a bellend. Even complains about getting booked Could have easily been a penalty against Hakimi near the end of the match as well. I'm not surprised though; Siebert was the referee that gifted Bayern a penalty against us last season in the cup semifinal. Cunt. Anyway good to see Bayern lose; hopefully one of the many losses this season.

Anyway good to see Bayern lose; hopefully one of the many losses this season. Fully expected the red card to come out of the pocket. Like you I was equally bemused that Kimmich was moaning about it! Penalty was a bit debatable - didn't have control of the ball any more but have seen them given. Sanches does impede him somewhat. I'm just happy for Dortmund to put the 5-0 & 6-0 losses behind them now!
SchalkeUK Posted August 3, 2019 Posted August 3, 2019 Whoever and whichever you support that was not a bad game at all with which to start the season - it must reduce the BVB odds already on winning the title! and no Ribery or Robben to come and with this back line, Leroy will not be the answer - his game will not fit the way they played today - Bayern will have to look elsewhere - and quickly!
Moderator Tommy Posted August 4, 2019 Moderator Posted August 4, 2019 I love Bayern's saltiness already. Kimmich said Dortmund "deserved to win, but wasn't better", Hoeneß' face on the stands, Salihamidzic being a complete clown... love it. I hope Dortmund win the league by some margin, and Bayern struggle for a CL spot.
