Borussia Dortmund maintained their unbeaten start to the season with a 2-0 win over 10-man Heidenheim at the Voith-Arena. Serhou Guirassy scored in the 33rd minute, tapping in a pass from Waldemar Anton, and Maximilian Philipp doubled the lead in the 45th+6 minute.
Heidenheim's chances of getting their first points of the season were severely hampered when Budu Zivzivadze was given a red card in the 22nd minute for a studs-up challenge on Felix Nmecha. This left Heidenheim with 10 men for most of the game, making it difficult for them to mount a comeback.
Dortmund seized the opportunity and took the lead through their in-form striker Serhou Guirassy. Guirassy's impressive header, powered by his height and athleticism, came from Julian Ryerson's pinpoint cross, securing his fourth league goal of the season. This goal showcased Dortmund's clinical finishing and ability to capitalize on scoring chances.
Heidenheim thought they were heading into halftime with just a one-goal deficit, but Maximilian Beier sealed Dortmund's victory with a late stoppage-time goal. Karim Adeyemi's precise pass set up Beier, who calmly tapped the ball into the net, doubling Dortmund's lead.
In the second half, Heidenheim faced an uphill battle but managed to create a few scoring opportunities. Arijon Ibrahimović's powerful long-range shot tested Gregor Kobel, who made a crucial save, tipping the ball over the crossbar. Despite their efforts, Heidenheim struggled to make a significant impact on the game.

In the second half, Dortmund's intensity waned, and they seemed to ease off the pedal, possibly conserving energy for their upcoming UEFA Champions League match against Juventus. Despite this, they still created opportunities to extend their lead, with Carney Chukwuemeka and Felix Nmecha both going close but failing to find the target from promising positions.
The match ultimately ended 2-0 in favor of Dortmund, with Serhou Guirassy and Maximilian Philipp scoring the goals. This win maintained Dortmund's unbeaten start to the season, and they'll look to build on this momentum in their upcoming Champions League opener against Juventus.
Borussia Dortmund celebrated their 11th consecutive unbeaten league match (W9, D2) with a 2-0 win over Heidenheim, marking their second consecutive clean sheet. Meanwhile, Heidenheim's struggles continued, leaving them as the only Bundesliga team without a point this season.
