Guirassy’s emotional message after CL goal for BVB | OneFootball

Serhou Guirassy gave Borussia Dortmund a dream start in the Champions League playoff first leg against Atalanta Bergamo – and then created special moments with a moving gesture.

Just three minutes had been played when the BVB star striker was on the spot. After a precise cross from Julian Ryerson, Guirassy rose highest in the penalty area and powerfully headed the ball into the right corner for an early 1-0 lead. A goal that was not only significant in sporting terms but also resonated emotionally.

Immediately after his goal, Guirassy lifted his jersey to reveal an undershirt with a personal message. It read: “Aissata Guirassy. May he welcome her into his great paradise.”

Moving Moment on a Big Stage

To whom the words were dedicated is not publicly known. However, it is clear that the 29-year-old shared a very personal moment with the football world through this gesture. Instead of exuberant celebration, Guirassy chose a quiet, reflective moment – right in the bright spotlight of the Champions League.

For Dortmund, the early goal was extremely important in sporting terms to make a statement in the playoff duel against the in-form Atalanta Bergamo. For Guirassy himself, this moment obviously had a deeper meaning.

The striker once again demonstrated that football is far more than goals and results. Sometimes it is the quiet messages that touch the most.
