– A fantastic match to watch. The adventure continues, concluded Viasat commentator Rune Bratseth after seeing Erling Braut Haaland and Dortmund’s performance against Freiburg.
This player from Norway played a major role in the Bundesliga match.
As usual, he was involved in many things, especially what happened at the end of the match made the commentators scream loudly.
– Get goosebumps
Then Haaland, who had already scored two goals, was played freely, and he more or less had a clear path to score. Despite this, Haaland chose to pass the ball to teammate Felix Passlack, who put the ball into the net – his first as a Dortmund player.
– He is the kindest man in the world! exclaimed Viasat commentator Eivind Bisgaard Sundet.
In the studio after the match, Viasat pundit Jan Åge Fjørtoft said that he thought it would benefit the entire Dortmund team to see their top scorer, Haaland, be generous.
– I got goosebumps, because that’s how it’s played. This is a truly outstanding player and team player.
Haaland himself just smiled at the situation when asked after the match.
– He is in a better position, and then you play with those who are in a better position, he told Viasat.
The 17 year old is playing big
The goal party started after half an hour of play. Then 17-year-old Giovanni Reyna found the Norwegian, who scored 1-0 from a corner.
History repeated itself after 66 minutes, because Reyna then also served Haaland. Reyna also provided the assist on Dortmund’s third goal, and the youngster is one of the giants on the pitch.
– He finally played for me today. “This is extraordinary, because then it becomes dangerous,” Haaland told Viasat.
He called Reyna and himself part of the team’s “young guns.”
– You can see that he is talented. He was two years younger than me, not even eighteen yet. It’s a bit of a “lie” to think about. I’m there to push other young people a little further. He just has to continue, concluded Haaland.
With the win, Dortmund responded strongly after recent league defeat to Augsburg and cup loss to Bayern Munich.
The team has two wins and one loss in the series so far, and is currently in second place.
