In a gripping encounter at Stadion Rote Erde, Borussia Dortmund’s U19 team triumphed over Union Berlin with a scoreline of 2-0, thanks to two penalties from Nick Cherny. Despite missing key players like Tyler Meiser and Jonas Feddersen due to international commitments, Dortmund dominated possession and created numerous scoring chances throughout the match.
“I saw an outstanding game of football from us when in possession, but I’ve also never experienced such a plethora of chances. We should have scored six, seven or eight goals by the interval,” reflected head coach Mike Tullberg, highlighting the developmental stage of his team.
The young BVB squad kept Union Berlin’s defence under constant pressure and only met resistance from goalkeeper Jaden Rodtnick until the 48th minute when Cherny’s penalty finally broke the deadlock. Dortmund bombarded the goal with attempts from Kegni, Albert, and Diallo, but it was the successful penalty that finally saw them ahead.
As they faced an increasing need to secure their position in the league, the U19s showcased impressive teamwork and tenacity. Late in the game, as Union fought back, Tullberg’s side earned a second penalty in the 87th minute after a handball by Ahmad Badran, which Cherny confidently converted to seal the victory.
“It was a great game of football, overall, which I have to praise the team for. I hope that we’ll get better at converting chances in the next few games,” Tullberg added, setting his sights on upcoming fixtures against Karlsruher SC and FSV Mainz 05.
