DORTMUND, GERMANY – As Bundesliga don ready to restart after di international break wey sabi go too long, na time to shake off those stress and focus on our Black and Yellow lads, Borussia Dortmund. Dem dey ready to face lowly Heidenheim, wey don struggle since dem promote for 2023. No gbagba, Dortmund no fit allow any laziness dis weekend, dem need to win! (I no fit imagine if dem no gree follow instructions.)
Heidenheim don dey make dem shine like maggot inside rice since dem join di league, but e no mean say dem fit beat BVB. Last season, Dortmund run dem like snail when dem dey win home and away. But no be say Heidenheim no get chance, dem don draw two times last season, so make we no write dem off just like that, abi na lie?
Dis season, dem don start am very sour, suffering two losses to Wolfsburg and RB Leipzig. Dem go need miracle strong enough to collect di first point for di season. Everybody dey curious to see how Dem go battle Dortmund and wetin Diant Ramaj go do as goalkeeper; e be Dortmund player on loan for Heidenheim o! (I hope say e no wan go impress too much o!)
Ramaj don dey receive yellow cards like say na candy; e don collect two already and na three goals e don concede so far. E don jolly at di back, but no be for him to dey jolly wey Dortmund dey come for points. Some pipo dey think he fit still shine like star, but for dis match, I need am to fall for goals make BVB shine.
Dortmund line-up wey go face dem no go change too much; everybody dey guess how Niko Kovać go set dem. Players like Guirassy and Jobe go start, but Sabitzer and Svensson fit rest as dem dey prepare to face Juventus for midweek (no be small pressure). Dis season go still dey young so say Kovać fit still dey chop him starting XI anyhow he like.
Felix Nmecha just drop fine goal last week, so e fit love make e start as well. Kobel go continue for goal while Anton, Bensebaini, and Anselmino go form di back. Good news be say, Yan Couto dey shine bright recently, so e fit start again. For Julian Brandt matter, e don already do surgery for wrist wey break during Club World Cup, but no wahala him fit dey ready with di hustle.
Expectations dey high, but we know say Dortmund no dey do things easy. I dey suspect say both teams go score, but na Dortmund quality go show at di end, even if dem no fit play well. As dem hustle, we go know how di kpakpando wey Kovac don put for ground go yield result, wey go define di rest of di season. Chai! Make I no jinx dis win with my tiff tiff mouth o!
