Borussia Dortmund ended their five-match winless streak by defeating Shakhtar Donetsk 3-1 in a Champions League match. Serhou Guirassy scored twice in the first half, easing any pressure on the managerless squad. Although Dortmund's goalkeeper Gregor Kobel conceded a goal due to an error, Remy Bensebaini restored a two-goal cushion later in the match. This victory ensures Dortmund will progress to the play-off round of the competition, while Shakhtar's elimination means they finished lower in the standings.
The match itself was a relatively comfortable affair for managerless Dortmund, with Serhou Guirassy scoring a first-half brace to take away any potential nerviness.
Dortmund goalkeeper Gregor Kobel got the visitors back into things with a dreadful error, taking too much time in possession and getting tackled by Marlon Gomes.
