Thanks to a goal from Girassi, Borussia Dortmund defeated Augsburg 1-0 in a key match of the 9th round of the 2025/26 Bundesliga season. Niko Kovac, in an interview, stated that Girassi is a player who can help the team earn points and that he was happy with the clean sheet.

In the 37th minute, Dortmund's long pass was cleared, and Guirassy controlled the ball, turned and fired a shot into the net, giving Dortmund a 1-0 lead.

In the end, Dortmund defeated Augsburg 1-0 away from home, achieving their second consecutive victory.

Borussia Dortmund coach Niko Kovac said, "We knew exactly what the game against Augsburg would be like, so we knew it wouldn't be a pretty match, but a fierce contest. We had a slight advantage thanks to Guirassy's goal, but otherwise, the game was full of physical challenges and tackling."

“We had only played 120 minutes, and we really needed a striker, and we really needed Guirassy. He's the one who can get points for us. The more goals he scores, the easier it will be for us to win. He hasn't scored in the last few weeks, which has made things more difficult for us. But he scored the decisive goal in this game, and we also kept a clean sheet, which is fantastic.”

Goalkeeper Kerber said in an interview, "My teammates in front of me have performed very well, which is the key to this season. Our defense is very solid, the opponents have few chances and score few goals. To win a game like this, everyone needs to work together. Our team chemistry is very good, and this characteristic is even more evident in games like this because the game is really tough."

“You’ll encounter games like this during the season. The fact is, we can hold our ground defensively and have top strikers scoring goals for us in the attacking third, and that’s the key to winning.”

In addition, Dortmund midfielder Gross said, "These are very important three points, and it's a must-win game away from home. Augsburg is eager to turn things around, so we had to withstand the pressure, and in the end we scored a goal. We've just had a very busy schedule, so these three points are extremely important."

“I’m especially happy for Girassi because he’s so important to us. When he doesn’t score, people talk because he sets the bar too high. He stayed calm and scored a goal, and it was this exceptional individual ability that earned us the three points.”
