Borussia Dortmund beats Hertha BSC 2-0, Brandt and Malen score for top-three.

Borussia Dortmund secured their second win in a row after beating Hertha BSC 2-0 at the Signal Iduna Park on Saturday evening. The match was a tense affair with both teams creating chances throughout the game, but it was Borussia Dortmund who were able to break the deadlock early in the second half.

Brandt opened the scoring for Dortmund just before the hour mark, his header finding the back of the net from a corner kick. This was followed up by Malen's goal five minutes later, as he finished off a well-worked team move that saw him receive a pass from Erling Haaland.

The result means that Borussia Dortmund have now moved into third place in the Bundesliga table, level on points with RB Leipzig and two behind leaders Bayern Munich. They will be looking to continue their winning run when they face Schalke next week.

Hertha BSC, meanwhile, remain in seventh place in the league standings despite this defeat. They will be hoping to bounce back against Hoffenheim next weekend.

Overall, it was a solid performance from Borussia Dortmund, who showed great composure and determination to secure all three points. Their performances over recent weeks have been impressive, and they will be confident of continuing their winning streak.
