October 02, (THEWILL) – Borussia Dortmund delivered a devastating performance in the Champions League, defeating Celtic 7-1 at home on Tuesday. The German side’s victory equalled their largest margin in the competition, whilst dealing a significant blow to Celtic’s European aspirations.

Karim Adeyemi played a pivotal role, scoring a first-half hat-trick and winning a penalty. Emre Can opened the scoring from the spot, with Serhou Guirassy converting another penalty and later adding a solo goal. Felix Nmecha completed the rout with a late strike.

Despite Celtic’s strong domestic form, having won all eight of their matches in Scotland and Europe this season, they were thoroughly outclassed in Germany. The Scottish champions found themselves trailing 5-1 at halftime, unable to contain Dortmund’s relentless attack.

The match began with a united rendition of ‘You’ll Never Walk Alone’, reflecting the long-standing friendship between the two clubs’ supporters. However, the camaraderie quickly gave way to a one-sided contest on the pitch, with Dortmund asserting their dominance from the outset.

This comprehensive victory propels Dortmund to the top of their UEFA Champions League group. Conversely, Celtic now find themselves in the bottom half of the table in 19th place, a stark contrast to their commanding 5-1 win over Bratislava in their opening fixture.
