Match Report
Serhou Guirassy returned to goal-scoring form as Borussia Dortmund won at Augsburg 1-0 and moved into second place in the Bundesliga on Friday.
Guirassy got the only goal seven minutes before halftime when he gathered a loose ball on the edge of the box and calmly slotted it under the goalkeeper.
After scoring four times in his first three league matches, the Guinea international failed to hit the net in the next four games but Friday's effort took him into second place in the Bundesliga scoring chart behind only Harry Kane.
It marked a timely return to form ahead of next week's visit to Manchester City in the Champions League.
Named last week as one of 10 contenders for African player of the year, Guirassy scored 21 Bundesliga goals last season and finished joint-top scorer in last season's Champions League.
Although both sides had chances after the break on a chilly night in Bavaria, they could not add to the score in a game that featured only two shots on target in the whole 90 minutes.
Dortmund was four points behind leader Bayern Munich, which has a game in hand.
Augsburg was 15th after its third consecutive defeat.
