Borussia Dortmund sealed their first Bundesliga away win of the season with a dominant 3-0 victory over Wolfsburg, scoring all three goals in a five-minute blitz to close out 2024 in style.

 

Donyell Malen opened the scoring for Borussia Dortmund in the 25th minute with an acrobatic finish from a corner, giving them the lead.

Just three minutes later, Dortmund doubled their advantage at the Volkswagen Arena when Julian Brandt set up Maximilian Beier, who calmly finished past Kamil Grabara.

Two minutes after that, Beier turned provider, laying the ball off for Brandt to fire home and make it 3-0.

Wolfsburg briefly sparked hope in the second half when Denis Vavro scored with a header from Maximilian Arnold's corner to pull one back for the home side.

Dortmund's task became harder when Pascal Gross was shown a red card for bringing down Lukas Nmecha as he charged towards goal.

Despite mounting pressure from Wolfsburg, Nuri Sahin's side held firm in defense and secured the victory. With the win, Dortmund are now sixth in the Bundesliga, just two points behind fourth-placed RB Leipzig.

Dortmund will face defending champions Bayer Leverkusen at home when the league resumes on January 10, while Wolfsburg will travel to Hoffenheim the following day.
