DORTMUND, Germany: Borussia Dortmund’s Erling Haaland scored one goal in every half to lead his team to a 3-0 win over bottom Greuther Fürth on Wednesday and to reduce the gap to leaders Bayern Munich to six points.
The Norwegian opened his account in the 33rd minute and then grabbed his 53rd league goal in 53 Bundesliga games with a massive header in the 82nd minute.
The Dutchman Donyell Malen added with a smart finish on the long Pfosten in 89th place added a third and thus scored his fifth goal in six games in all competitions.
Fürth, who took his first win of the season last week, held the hosts in check for about 25 minutes before a great Haaland -No-Look-Pass met Thorgan Hazard, whose one-touch finish went offside, but was offside.
Haaland scored a little later with his well-executed penalty after a handball and would have been minutes later but could not steer the ball into the net from eight meters.
In the 38th minute, Fürth almost hit with a sucker punch, but Cedric Itten’s shot just missed the goal.
Haaland secured himself the three points and scored eight minutes before the end with a header from a free kick by Julian Brand his 13th league goal of the season before Malen’s last-minute goal.
