Five-star Stuttgart demolishes Dortmund
Deniz Undav scored a brace as a rampant Stuttgart put on a spectacular display to stun Borussia Dortmund 5-1 in the Bundesliga.
Nuri Sahin's Dortmund went into the clash unbeaten in the Bundesliga this season, but that run was emphatically ended by the hosts.
Undav got Stuttgart off to a flying start inside five minutes at MHP Arena when the forward found Maximilian Mittelstadt's pass, stormed into the box and fired into the far bottom corner.
Last season's runner-up tore apart the shocked visitors' defence, with Mittelstadt providing Ermedin Demirovic with a chipped cross to head home and double Stuttgart's lead in the 21st minute.
After Enzo Millot added a third for the hosts, former Stuttgart man Serhou Guirassy reduced Dortmund's deficit with a goal in the 72nd minute.
But substitute El Bilal Toure and Undav made matters worse as they added another goal each to Stuttgart's tally.
Dortmund sits eighth in the Bundesliga with seven points from four matches, while Stuttgart is sixth with the same points but a better goal difference thanks to this thrashing.
