Serhou Guirassy supplied two clinical finishes to help Borussia Dortmund take a 2-1 away win at Sabah in the UEFA Champions League, showing once more just how dependable his striking is on the European stage.

Guirassy pounced with precision on a parry from the opposing goalkeeper to send Dortmund ahead in the tenth minute and then volleyed in a Joey Veerman cross to restore their lead in the 53rd.

A delighted Gregor Kobel said after the win: "Serhou is a machine, and I don't really have to say much more."

It was crucially the first time Dortmund had tasted success in four matches, following a 2-2 draw with Werder Bremen, a 1-0 loss at Bodø/Glimt and a 0-0 draw at Union Berlin.

Guirassy himself said: "We are very happy about the win. It was really important for us as a team, because after our recent results, morale was quite low. That’s what defines a great team - finding a way to win matches like this."

Also pleasing for Dortmund fans is the fact that despite his heroics, Guirassy is greedy for more goals, saying: "I think we needed too many chances and we could have scored more."

Four goals in three Champions League appearances this season bring his total in the competition to 23 - placing him just two goals outside the top 50 scorers in competition history.

Real Betis will visit Dortmund in early November, but before then he will be eager to add to his two Bundesliga goals so far this season, with Eintracht Frankfurt visiting this Saturday (kick-off: 6.30pm CEST).
