The German striker's goal gave his team a comfortable lead they would not relinquish until the final whistle.

In the second half, Borussia Dortmund continued to dominate possession and create scoring opportunities for themselves. Their efforts paid off in the 81st minute when Erling Haaland received a pass from Kai Havertz and volleyed the ball past Hertha BSC goalkeeper Jan Oblak.
