Shinji Kagawa's goal-scoring drought is over.

After watching Borussia Dortmund's Champions League elimination from the confines of the bench earlier this week, Kagawa was inserted into Jurgen Klopp's starting XI on Saturday and put his side ahead in their Bundesliga fixture versus Hannover 96.

Not much had to be done on Kagawa's end, however, as he merely needed to tap the ball into an open net following a counterattack that saw Dortmund move the ball nearly the entirely length of the pitch.

It had been a really long time since Kagawa last scored.
