The Black & Yellows were repeatedly able to win the ball high up the pitch and pose a threat in transitional situations. This was the case in the 10th minute of the match, when Mathis Albert stole the ball from Lionel Voufack, penetrated into the penalty area and could only be stopped through a foul by Jonathan Norbye. Referee Solomon Anderson awarded a penalty, which Nick Cherny confidently converted to make it 1-0.<\/p>\nHowever, the lead only lasted just under seven minutes, as Leipzig equalised from distance after an unfortunate attempt to clear the ball. The ball fell to the feet of Mika Walther around 20 metres from goal, who fired a shot into the bottom right corner of the net. The visitors saw more of the ball at this stage. It was not until Taycan Etcibasi's long-range shot (29) that BVB posed an attacking threat again. Further shots from Samuele Inacio (44) and Ousamane Diallo (45) came close but failed to find the net.<\/p>\nBVB coach Tullberg made two changes at the start of the second half, bringing on two fresh attacking players in Pharell Kegni and Diego Ngambia Dzonza. In the 53rd minute, Tim Degener played in Cherny, who rounded the Leipzig goalkeeper and slotted home to give BVB a 2-1 lead. Borussia were the dominant team, as Leipzig capitulated in the closing stages. Viggo Gebel prevented Dortmund from taking a throw-in and was given his marching orders by the referee after a second yellow card (68).<\/p>\nJust a few minutes later, Degener crowned his strong performance with a goal to make it 3-1. It was a pass from Diallo that played Degener in behind the defence, who then surprised Fernando Dickes in the Leipzig goal by finding the near corner from an acute angle (71). The game seemed to be decided, but BVB failed to put it beyond doubt. It was only in stoppage time that Cherny scored again after a pass from substitute Valon Cena to make the final score 4-1.<\/p>\nAfter six games, the Black & Yellows are third in Group D with 10 points. Opponents Leipzig (12 points) and leaders Karlsruhe (13 points) are still ahead of Tullberg's team. The teams in the top four places secure their tickets to the round of 16.<\/p>\nThe U19s' next competitive fixture is against Karlsruher SC.

Enzo de Pina Duarte dos Santos, the new arrival from Luxembourg, and Marwan Mirza laid the foundations for victory with their goals in the 28th minute and 45th minute respectively. The visitors from the VfL academy pulled one back in the 63rd minute through Lumiere Santo.<\/p>\nGorges had to make do without Niklas König, who was ill, but striker Diego Branco, who had just recovered from a flu-like infection, was able to make it onto the bench and help secure the three important points later on. Damian Kolano replaced König in the right-back position, Marwan Mirza, who like Luca Riedl and Ahmad Naijdi had just returned from international duty in Portugal with the Germany U16s, started at right-back. Enzo de Pina Duarte dos Santos played in the number-ten role.<\/p>\nBVB quickly hit their stride against the physically dominant and well-drilled visitors. The Black & Yellows looked focused across the park and always found footballing solutions going forward against the compact Bochum defence. The running lines were coordinated, the automatisms functioned, and the team was full of enthusiasm. "I'm pleased and proud of how they performed as a team, especially in the first half," commented a satisfied Karsten Gorges.<\/p>\nAnd they had good opportunities to take the lead early on, but the usually reliable Jemain Kusi missed the target twice from promising positions. The opening goal was the result of a fine solo effort from Enzo de Pina Duarte dos Santos, who gave VfL goalkeeper Noel Ferrara no chance with a well-placed shot from 14 metres out. The second goal was also an eye-catcher: De Pina Duarte dos Santos won the ball in midfield and slipped it wide to Julian Driedger, who crossed perfectly for Mirza. The right-back, who covered an enormous distance of 13 kilometres over the course of the game, netted with a first-time finish. <\/p>\nThe Bochum side repeatedly landed jabs in this compelling and hard-fought derby. BVB goalkeeper Mattis Wehrbein was the heart of the action on several occasions. He was powerless in the second half when VfL were rewarded for their good performance with a goal scored by Santo. The final phase went back and forth; Bochum attacked, Borussia defended with dedication and counter-attacked when the opportunity presented itself, coming close to scoring once or twice. <\/p>\n"That was a very good start. We want to put ourselves in a leading position in this group and finish top of the table," said Karsten Gorges, setting out an ambitious goal.
