Hertha Berlin started on the front foot as Matheus Cunha gave the home side a lead going into the interval.

The Norwegian then completed his hat-trick on the 62nd minute and then added his fourth on the night with 79 minutes on the clock. Raphael Guerreiro scored the other goal for Borussia Dortmund.
Following his scoring run on the night, Erling Haaland said that he was a bit mad at manager Lucien Favre for being substituted. 'To be honest, after the game, [Favre] asked me how many I scored. He asked me: Did you score three?' Haaland told ESPN. 'I said: 'No, four. Only four because you subbed me out.' So I’m a bit mad at him right now but that’s how it is.'
With this win, the Black and Yellows move to second in the Bundesliga points table and are just one point behind leaders Bayern Munich. This was Borussia Dortmund’s fourth win in the last five games with their only loss coming against rivals from Munich
