Borussia Dortmund has stumbled over two victories over Union Berlin. The vice-champion has lost against the promoted away spectacularly 1: 3 (1: 1). The goals were scored by Marius Bülter (22., 50 minutes) and Sebastian Andersson (75.) for Berlin and Paco Alcácer (25.) for BVB. Union thus celebrated its first Bundesliga victory.
For the third time in the third game of the season, Dortmund had to catch up: After a corner kick brought Christopher Trimmel the ball in the backcourt, Marius Bülter scored by direct reception, the first Bundesliga home goal for Union (22). However, the Berliners could only look forward to it briefly. Reus played the ball on the right wing to Sancho, who has plenty of space and hung up for Alcácer, who pushed the ball over the line in the six-foot space to compensate (25).
At the end of the first half Union left the over 70 percent ball possession acting Dortmundern too much space, so that Julian Weigl (post) and Marco Reus (parade Rafal Gikiewicz) still came to opportunities.

Union Marius Bülter scored for the first Bundesliga home goal for Berlin
Things went quite differently after the break. The trigger for this was a mistake by Dortmund's Manuel Akanji, who plays the opponent in the feet. Unions Andersson grabbed the ball, came to the shot and failed first to BVB keeper Bürki. Bülter relented and scored the double (50th). Shortly thereafter, Andersson still met and made with his goal to 3: 1 the sensation perfect.
Dortmund misses the chance to displace RB Leipzig from the top of the table and is currently fifth (six points), Berlin is tenth with four points.
