It was an emphatic display from Borussia Dortmund as they beat their rivals 4-0. However, which players impressed the most for Lucien Favre?

The Borussia Dortmund got back underway in fine form this afternoon, as Borussia Dortmund hosted their rivals Schalke in front of an empty Signal Iduna Park. However, the action certainly wasn’t affected by the lack of atmosphere.

Well, this is true for one side, I must say, as the Revier derby was completely one-sided (which is never usually the case). The hosts won by a scoreline of 4-0, with Erling Haaland and Thorgan Hazard on the scoreline, with Raphael Guerreiro getting a brace.

So, the excitement was certainly still there, but how did the individuals perform? Buckle up, as I bring you my first player ratings in what feels like 78 years…

Roman Burki – 7/10

Roman Burki was untested but he can come away from the Revier derby with a clean sheet which is a rare occasion. In all honesty, though, he would have expected it. The Schalke attack was poor in the leadup to the Coronavirus break, and it showed in this match. A clean sheet for Burki, and it was probably the easiest clean sheet he’ll get for the rest of his career.
