Erling Haaland scored twice and made two more as Borussia Dortmund exploded into the 2021/22 Bundesliga season with a 5-2 win over Eintracht Frankfurt.

Borussia Dortmund 5-2 Eintracht Frankfurt
Goals: 1-0 Reus (23'), 1-1 Passlack (o.g. 27'), 2-1 Hazard (32'), 3-1 Haaland (34'), 4-1 Reyna (58'), 5-1 Haaland (70'), 5-2 Hauge (86')

Some 25,000 fans were in attendance at the Signal Iduna Park, but it sounded more like 80,000 when Marco Reus swept in following a bulldozing Haaland run to give Dortmund the lead. A bizarre Felix Passlack own goal cooled the party mood - the Dortmund right-back side-footed past Gregor Kobel from 18 yards as he attempted to contain Rafael Santos Borre's run - but normal service was resumed just past the half-hour mark. Axel Witsel - operating at centre-back - cut out a teasing cross, prompting a blistering transition up the middle of the pitch. Gio Reyna and Reus helped the ball on to Haaland, who set up Thorgan Hazard for 2-1. Haaland got in on the act soon after, toeing Reus's flick-on past Stefan Ilsanker before racing away and finishing under Kevin Trapp. Nico Schulz made Trapp work, and Reus had an chalked off as Die Schwarzgelben cantered into the half-time break.

Kobel preserved Dortmund's two-goal advantage with a fantastic save to deny Santos Borre's header soon after the restart, but that was about as good as it got for Frankfurt. Jude Bellingham had a goal-bound shot charged down, before BVB extended their advantage with less than an hour gone. A Haaland shot across goal was deflected into the path of Reyna, who - having instigated the melee with an effort of his own - reacted quickest to control and slot beyond Trapp. It got worse still for Frankfurt as Haaland completed his brace after latching onto a Reus through-ball, the 21-year-old's composed finish standing following a VAR review. Eintracht debutant Jens Petter Hauge's late strike was scant consolation as Marco Rose's Dortmund warmed up for Tuesday's Supercup showdown with defending champions Bayern Munich in style.
