Borussia Dortmund's women's footballers have continued their victorious march through the Landesliga with a 5-0 (2-0) win over BSV Heeren. In Nelly Doronin, an U17 player made an appearance for the first team for the first time in the closing stages.

14th victory in 15 league games, 10th clean sheet in a row and currently Landesliga leaders by a margin of 11 points thanks to Dröschede's victory over Brechten in the battle of the challengers – the BVB women are still fully on course for the Westfalenliga.

Borussia began their home game against BSV Heeren with two changes compared to the away win in Herten: Marah Tayeh and Marjana Naveca replaced Danelle Tan and Mandy Reinhardt (both ill). The Black & Yellows immediately seized control of the match and posed a danger but lacked penetration in front of goal. The best opportunity was squandered by Tayeh, who went clean through on the visitors' goal but failed to beat keeper Julia Glowka (10).

The American went one better in the 19th minute when she tapped a lovely cross from Merle Greulich into an empty net at the back post to open the scoring. Tayeh could have even bagged a brace five minutes later but fired wide of the left upright from almost 10 metres out. An even better opportunity fell to Kimberly Becker in the 28th minute when a penalty was awarded for handball. Glowka turned her spot-kick over the crossbar.

The league leaders continued to be careless with their good goalscoring chances at times in the period that followed, but a duplicate of the opening goal made it 2-0 in the 39th minute. Greulich fizzed another ball from the left into the middle – and Tayeh only had to slot into an empty net once again. "We of course could've scored more goals, but we got stuck into the challenges well and combined well offensively across the 90 minutes. I'm therefore very satisfied with our team performance," said double goalscorer Tayeh.

The crowd of almost 300 spectators saw the BVB women wrap up the match with a two-goal salvo directly after the interval. Naceva took advantage of an underhit backpass by the BSV defence and fired the ball past Glowka and into the net from a narrow angle (54). A matter of seconds later, Ana Louisa Haslsteiner rose the highest following a corner-kick from Lisa Gomulka and nodded home to make the score 4-0 (55).

There was a very special moment in the 79th minute: Nelly Doronin became the first player from the club's own U17s to make an appearance for the first team. The 16-year-old crowned her debut with an assist for Lea Herper's goal to make it 5-0 (83) and was ecstatic after the final whistle: "First of all, I'd like to thank the coaches and also the team, who have supported me superbly. It was an incredible feeling to play for the first team and to then get an assist too."

Coach Thomas Sulewski drew a positive conclusion after the straightforward victory – in which Heeren did not have a single chance to score: "The margin of victory is absolutely deserved. Nicely taken goals, another goal from a set-piece and I'm especially pleased for Nelly, who earned her place today through her performance."

The Borussia Dortmund women's footballers will next visit SC Union Bochum-Bergen on Sunday 17 March. Kick-off at Sportplatz Hunsrückstraße is at 15:15 CET.
