Borussia Dortmund Opens Bundesliga Season with Win

Borussia Dortmund secured a 2-0 victory against Eintracht Frankfurt in their Bundesliga opener, thanks to a brace from substitute Jamie Gittens. The match, which saw Dortmund struggle initially against Frankfurt's high pressing, came alive in the 72nd minute when Gittens scored with a brilliant strike from a tight angle. He then sealed the win in stoppage time during a counter-attack, marking a strong start for new coach Nuri Sahin. Dortmund dominated possession with 70.2% and registered 20 shots on goal compared to Frankfurt's seven. The match also featured protests from Dortmund fans against the club's sponsorship deal with a German arms manufacturer. Gittens, who hadn't scored since November, hopes to build on this performance as the season progresses.
