The victory was ultimately deserved for a clearly superior BVB, who dominated possession (60%), registered more shots (14-7), won more corners (8-0) and won more challenges (57%). Here are the match facts.

Coaching milestone: This was Edin Terzic’s 50th Bundesliga match as a head coach (all for BVB). The 40-year-old’s record is impressive: there have been 32 wins, five draws and 13 defeats. The win rate is a strong 64%.

Borussia strong at home: BVB recorded their eighth Bundesliga home win in a row and extended their cushion over Union Berlin to five points.

Goal drought over: Youssoufa Moukoko scored in a competitive game for BVB for the first time since 5 November 2022 (a brace in the 3-0 home win against Bochum on Matchday 13).

Golden touch: It was already Borussia’s 12th goal by a substitute this season – more than any other club in the league!

Super sub: Youssoufa Moukoko scored with his second touch of the ball and has scored three of his seven goals this term from the bench; no sub in the league has more! In total, seven of his 12 Bundesliga goals have come from the bench.

Record-setting youngster: At the age of 18 years and 139 days, Youssoufa Moukoko has become the youngest player in Bundesliga history to make 50 appearances. Moukoko takes the record from Florian Wirtz, who reached this landmark at 18 years and 226 days.

Top provider: Raphael Guerreiro notched his 11th assist of the season – nine of which have come since the winter break – and is now the Bundesliga’s top provider.

Great scoring run: Donyell Malen has scored in three successive Bundesliga games for the first time in his Bundesliga career. His four goals this season have come since Matchday 21!

Goals guaranteed: Borussia Dortmund have scored at least one goal in each of their last 47 Bundesliga home games – an ongoing club record.

Still pointless away to BVB: Dortmund is the only place where the Iron Ones have played more than one Bundesliga away game (four in total) without picking up a single point.

Only beaten on the road: All six of Fischer’s side’s Bundesliga defeats this season have been away.
