Borussia Dortmund began their 2026 Bundesliga campaign on August 30 against HSV, aiming for a strong start as they seek to continue a recent tradition of opening wins. Serhou Guirassy scored the first goal of the season in the 9th minute with a shot from nearly 17 meters, reaching a speed of 101.4 km/h.
