Bundesliga: World Cup hopeful Moukoko dazzles as Dortmund beat Bochum 3-0

The Hindu  

World Cup hopeful Youssoufa Moukoko scored twice as Borussia Dortmund cruised past local Ruhr rivals VfL Bochum 3-0 on Saturday to take over third spot in the Bundesliga. The 17-year-old Moukoko could not have delivered a better pitch ahead of Germany coach Hansi Flick’s squad announcement next week, confirming his outstanding form when he rifled in from 18 metres to give Dortmund the lead in the eighth minute. There was more good news for Dortmund early in the second half when captain Marco Reus made his comeback from injury, just in time for the World Cup squad announcement. Dortmund, whose Suedtribune fans unfurled giant banners reading ‘Boycott Qatar 2022’ and ‘Switch off Qatar2022’ over the Gulf state’s human rights record ahead of the World Cup start on Nov. 20, are on 25 points.
