Half-Time Report: Borussia Dortmund in cruise control

Dortmund in cruise control

Borussia Dortmund are in complete control in their home Bundesliga clash against Eintracht Frankfurt, leading at the break 2-0.

Frankfurt started well and earned an early corner, but Lukasz Piszczek managed to break, with his cross eventually deflected to Sebastian Kehl, who blazed over.

They did not have to wait much longer to take the lead, however. Henrikh Mkhitaryan won the ball high up the pitch before sending Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang away with an inch-perfect pass for a good finish.

After 20 minutes it was 2-0 to BVB, but this one was not so pretty. A corner from Nuri Sahin was partially kept out by Kevin Trapp, but fell to Aubameyang to fire in his second from close range.

Frankfurt came close to pulling one back on the half-hour mark, but Constant Djakpa's powerful free kick went not far over, before Sokratis Papastathopoulos blocked well from just in front of his own goal to ensure the lead at the break.
