Haaland nets 4 for Dortmund

By The Assam Tribune

BERLIN, Nov 22: Erling Haaland scored four goals and Youssoufa Moukoko became the youngest player in Bundesliga history as Borussia Dortmund beat Hertha Berlin 5-2 to move second.

The buildup had been all about Moukoko, who was eligible for his debut after turning 16 on Friday. But Haaland stole the show on a cold night in Berlin on Saturday � before making way for the youngster�s debut in the 85th minute.

�I think he�s the biggest talent in the world right now. 16 years and one day, that�s quite amazing. He has a big career ahead of him,� Haaland said about Moukoko to ESPN.

�I�m over 20 years, I�m getting old now. That�s how it is.�

The first half was a hard-fought contest between two teams determined to close down the other�s space. Dortmund dominated possession but struggled to find gaps in Hertha�s committed defence. � AP
