Watch: Dortmund turns on the style in Darmstadt drubbing
Reuters
Darmstadt paid Borussia Dortmund a visit Saturday, and the hosts put on a clinic in all things stylish in a 6-0 defeat that featured goals from two teenagers, Emre Mor and Christian Pulisic, and two sublime backheel finishes.
First, it was Gonzalo Castro who dazzled those in attendance at the Westfalenstadion with a deft goal, only for summer signing Sebastian Rode to best his mate's effort with a backheel finish of his own six minutes later.
Castro's brace, the first of which was assisted by another teen, Ousmane Dembele, and the Rode tally were paired with goals from Mor, Pulisic, and Adrian Ramos, as Thomas Tuchel's lot climb to fourth in the table, a point adrift of Hertha Berlin and RB Leipzig.
