Jamie Bynoe-Gittens, Julian Brandt on target as Dortmund ease past Werder Bremen

February 12, 2023

Borussia Dortmund’s Jamie Bynoe-Gittens and Julian Brandt scored in the second half to hand them a 2-0 victory over hosts Werder Bremen on Saturday as they extended their winning run this year and stayed within three points of the top.

Bynoe-Gittens, the 18-year-old England youth international, who is coming into his own at Dortmund, broke the deadlock in the 67th minute, seconds after coming on.

It was Dortmund’s 15th goal by a teenager this season, as many as all the other Bundesliga teams combined.

Brandt then capped a fine performance with a goal of his own in the 85th to hand Dortmund their fifth win from five league games this year.

“I am not only satisfied with the result but always with the way we played out this win,” sad Dortmund coach Edin Terzic.

“It is not easy to leave Bremen with a win. The fact that again a substitute [Bynoe-Gittens] scored is proof of the balance of our squad.”

The Ruhr valley club, who face Chelsea on Wednesday in the Champions League round of 16, are in third place on 40 points, three behind leaders Bayern Munich and two off second-placed Union Berlin, who won 2-1 at RB Leipzig.
