Dortmund Earn Hard Fought Victory at Hertha Berlin To Return to Winning Ways

• Anthony Modeste was the match-winner for Dortmund as they pipped Hertha Berlin 1-0 on Saturday in the German Bundesliga
• 34-year-old Modeste joined Dortmund from FC Köln this summer as a replacement for Sebastien Haller
• Dortmund suffered a shocking 3-2 defeat at home against Werder Bremen last weekend after taking a 2-0 lead in the 88th minute

Borussia Dortmund bounced back to winning ways with a narrow 1-0 victory against Hertha Berlin on Saturday afternoon.

A first half goal from new signing Anthony Modeste was enough to give the Black and Yellow the maximum points away at Olympiastadion in Berlin.

Edin Terzić's side were under severe criticism last weekend after they threw away a 2-0 lead in the 88th minute to lose 3-2 against Werder Bremen.

But they were able to bounce back the hard way to register their third triumph in the ongoing Bundesliga season.

Dortmund scored the only goal of the game after French striker Modeste nodded home a cross from Salih Ozcan in the 32nd minute.

The veteran forward then celebrated his first goal in a Dortmund shirt by running emotionally to Dortmund manager Terzic and embraced him.

Modeste has now bagged an incredible eight goals in eleven games against Hertha Berlin.

Dortmund have now scored 10 goals in competitive fixtures this season, each of which has come from a different scorer.
