SC travelled to Austria with seven players from their U23s squad, with Fabian Rüdlin and Maximilian Breunig straight into the starting eleven. Breunig made an immediate impact, going past a number of Wolfsburg players before he was stopped from shooting at the last moment by Wolfsburg new signing Cedric Zesiger. Shortly afterwards, he predicted a backpass header and managed to nip in front of Koen Casteels but his lob flew narrowly over. It was third time lucky for Breunig, who flicked home a Merlin Röhl cross at the near post to put SC ahead(20’).

”Munas’s time at TSG was marked by highs and lows. At several points he had injury battles which often left him sidelined for long periods. Despite that, over the past three-and-a-half years he still managed to score 29 goals for us and provided a constant attacking threat,” says TSG managing director Alexander Rosen. “Nevertheless, when reflecting on such a gifted player at the end of our journey together, there is also a sense that more could have been possible. But in the end, we could always rely on him. Munas is a player of impeccable character, thoughtful and likeable, and we wish him all the best for his sporting and private future,” adds Rosen.

to move to the top of the Premier League table on goal difference, though Arsenal still have a game in hand.

A Black & Yellow side missing a number of key players – including Cole Campbell, Kjell Wätjen, Gökdeniz Gürpüz, William Rashidi, Elias Benkara and Tyler Meiser – were already 2-0 down at the break. Ciwan Günes put Bochum 1-0 ahead after a misunderstanding between Gustav Aabro, Venis Uka and Dustin Plöger in the eighth minute, before Zinedine Durmus converted a controversial spot-kick awarded for a foul by Almugera Kabar to make it 2-0 (25). Alex Niziolek missed the only noteworthy opportunity for Dortmund. “The first half was not good in footballing terms. We played too many long balls and were not patient in our build-up play against an aggressive Bochum side,” commented Karsten Gorges. 

If the recent World Cup winner can help PSG knock off Bayern Munich at the Allianz Arena, however, it will surely go down as yet another incredibly impressive feat for the Argentine legend.
