Press review, BVB v SC Freiburg: “Clinical against SCF’s B team” | OneFootball

Once again, SC Freiburg—this time fielding something of a B team—had no chance at Borussia Dortmund. The final score was 4–0 for BVB, who started scoring very early on. This is what the press had to say about the one-sided match at Signal Iduna Park.

SC Freiburg were “swept aside” in Dortmund, as they have been for many years now, says the Badische Zeitung. Freiburg may have shown signs of tired legs after the cup battle against VfB Stuttgart. Even so, their defense was clearly too porous. With BVB also giving their visitors a “lesson in efficiency,” the halftime lead was deserved. After the break, SCF came out of the dressing room better, but beyond a slight positive trend, there was little to note. “Ultimately, it was just one of those days for SCF.”

“Dortmund’s dominant display” is the headline in the SZ, which writes: with their 600th win in their 1000th home Bundesliga match against a “desolate” SC Freiburg, they secured qualification for the Champions League. The visitors were said to have lacked “any bite whatsoever,” while also making serious individual mistakes. That is why Freiburg “once again went under in Dortmund.” BVB, by contrast, punished the errors on offer “all too ruthlessly.”

Special praise for Samuele Inacio

BVB put on a “gala performance,” according to n-tv, as they stormed into the Champions League for the tenth straight time. That means SC Freiburg have now gone winless in Dortmund since 2001, though n-tv also notes that the cup final was still in their legs. After the blistering pace of the first three goals, BVB remained in control throughout. Samuele Inacio, in particular, delivered a “remarkably strong debut in the starting lineup.” Dortmund showed the right response to their two recent defeats. “Even with their comfortable lead, Dortmund did not completely sit back, but kept looking for gaps to score the next goal.”

“Four different goalscorers” made sure of BVB’s clear win, notes the Sportschau, though they also point out that it came against an SC Freiburg B team. BVB were on course for victory early and kept their foot on the gas for a long time. The second half then offered few real highlights, but the tension had long since drained from the match against a Freiburg side that was simply not competitive on the day. At least Mathis Albert, just 16 years old, made his professional debut for BVB.
