There's Something About Serhou: Only Kane and Mbappé Rank Higher

Serhou Guirassy joined Borussia Dortmund in the summer of 2024. Since then, the forward has played in 27 games UEFA Champions League games, and he ranks among the elite in Europe's elite club competition.

With his 20th and 21st UCL goals for BVB, the 30-year-old striker from Guinea led his side to a 2-1 away win over Sabah FC. On the opening netter, he was in the right place at the right time, tapping home a rebound. Then, for the game winner, he displayed perfect timing and technique. After the final whistle, Joey Veerman, who had served up the cross on the play, marveled at his teammate's attacking instincts, saying, “Even though there are always two players marking him, he’s really dangerous on crosses. He’s a truly great striker for us.”

Guirassy's stats prove the point. Since the start of the 2024-25 season, only Bayern München's Harry Kane (28 goals) and Kylian Real Madrid's Kylian Mbappé (24) have scored more goals in the UEFA Champions League than Serhou Guirassy (21)., who ranks above Manchester City's Erling Haaland (20) and PSG's Ousmane Dembélé (19).

Guirassy, who once again shined as Borussia’s match winner, offered up a no-nonsense analysis. “If you want to win a game, you have to score goals," he said, "and that’s exactly what we did. Of course, we could have scored even more goals today, but ultimately we’re pleased with the win.”

The play that led to the opening goal was initiated by Nico Schlotterbeck's excellent switch to Julian Ryerson on the right wing. Ryerson found Chukwuemeka, who combined with Fabio Silva and kept his composure in the penalty area, managing to lay the ball off to Nmecha. The Germany international's powerful shot from 16 meters (roughly 17.5 yards out) was parried by Sabah goalkeeper Stas Pokatilov and fell right to the feet of Guirassy, who pounced on the chance from five meters (roughgly 5.5 yards) out, scoring his 22nd Champions League goal (10').<\/p>\nPokatilov made a difficult save to stop Joey Veerman\u2019s free kick from exactly 16 meters out (24'), helping bring Boruissia's xG after half an hour to 2.15 and its lead in the shot count to 9-3. However, the Black & Yellow were not mistake-free on defense, as they were rescued by a narrow offside decision that wiped away Joy-Lance Mickels\u2019 equalizer. The attacker had found the back of the net following an impressive solo run by Parris (30'). Nine minutes later, the ball found it's way into the goal again, and this time the leveler would stand. Puchacz delivered a free kick into the six-yard box, where center back Aden McCarthy outjumped several Borussia players and sent an unsoppable close-range header past Gregor Kobel for 1-1. Kobel then kept his team from heading into the halftime break trailing, his saves denying Simic (42') and Parris (45').<\/p>\n<img data-assetref=\"99-Sabah-Anton-1792518072056\" src=\"/content/dam/bvbweb/en/news/2026/10/20/ucl-spielbericht/99-Sabah-Anton.jpg\"><\/p>\n1,800 Black & Yellow traveling supporters were among the officially announced crowd of 55,000. They were able to celebrate their side reclaiming the lead in the 52nd minute. Guirassy skillfully converted an outstanding cross from Veerman, who put it on a platter from the right side of the attack. Guirassy reached for the ball with his outstretched left leg, skillfully volleying it over the line. From that point forward, Dortmund controlled the game and manged to create a few promising looks inside the opposition penalty area. However, the visitors also narrowly escaped another scare inside their own box. After an errand pass by Schlotterbeck, a chipped ball found Mbina, who fired wide of the target \u2014 thanks in part to a slight nudge from behind by Daniel Svensson (75').<\/p>\nShortly before that key play, Niko Kovac had made a triple substitution, with Bellingham, Sabitzer and Gadou offering fresh legs and allowing Nmecha, Chukwuemeka and Bensebaini to get some early rest after the tiring travel of the previous two days.
