💫 First Bundesliga goal in front of 80,000 fans: HSV star living the dream | OneFootball

There's hardly a more thrilling away trip in the Bundesliga than to the Signal Iduna Park, which holds over 80,000 spectators. There's also hardly a better opportunity to score your first Bundesliga goal.

Philip Otele is currently living this dream. The Nigerian, whom HSV signed from FC Basel in the winter, just scored a surprising 1-0 for the visitors in the top match against BVB.

The left winger, who has often been somewhat unlucky in recent weeks, was brilliantly set up by William Mikelbrencis and only had to push the ball over the line from close range.

Before that, Mikelbrencis won the ball in a determined duel against Daniel Svensson.

Can HSV actually pull off the sensation in Dortmund and thus almost secure their place in the league?

Hamburg managed to gather further evidence for this in the first half. After perfect preparation by HSV ace Fabio Vieira, Lokonga increased the score to 2-0 for the visitors. 

So far, the Kovac team seems to have few answers to this surprising turn of events. Felix Nmecha missed the great chance to close the gap from the penalty spot just before the halftime whistle, shooting the penalty to the left of the goal.

In the 73rd minute, his teammate Bensebaini did better and converted the second penalty of the evening to make it 1-2 from Dortmund's perspective.

Thanks to a significant improvement in performance in the second half, a Guirassy goal (79th minute), and another penalty, also converted by Bensebaini (84th minute), BVB turned the game around to win 3-2 and left the field as the victor.
