Facts
10 goals, 10 goalscorers
BVB claimed a deserved win in Berlin – but they were again made to sweat for it until the final whistle. Dortmund had more shots (24-12) and the superior xG (3.4-0.5). The match facts.
Bombardment: 24 shots on goal is a new season record for the Black & Yellows (they had only five against Werder Bremen).
09: For the fourth season in a row, BVB have three wins and a defeat on the board from the opening four matchdays – which makes for 09 points.
Worth the trip: Borussia have won seven of their last eight Bundesliga matches against Hertha BSC.
Away run: For the first time since 2015/16 when Thomas Tuchel was in charge, BVB have won their first two away games of a Bundesliga season.
Clean sheets: Two of BVB's three wins this season have been by a 1-0 scoreline (at home to Leverkusen and in Berlin).
Unpredictable: The Modeste goal was the 10th competitive goal BVB have scored this season (seven of which have been in the Bundesliga); they have been scored by 10 different players.
Livewire: Karim Adeyemi had four shots at goal on his comeback – no player had more. He also recorded the highest speed in the match (34.0km/h).
Down the flanks: A total of only 15 crosses came from open play in the first three games of the season; that tally stood at 14 against Hertha – and one of them resulted in the goal.
Typical Tony: Anthony Modeste's 84th Bundesliga goal was the 24th he has scored from a cross and his 25th header. It was his eighth Bundesliga goal in 11 games against Hertha – there is no club he has scored against more often.
