Juventus secures a 2-1 win against Borussia Dortmund with goals from Cambiaso
Juventus Secures Preseason Win Against Dortmund with Cambiaso's Brace
In a thrilling preseason friendly on August 10, 2025, Juventus emerged victorious over Borussia Dortmund at the Signal Iduna Park, with Andrea Cambiaso scoring both goals for the Italian team in a 2-1 win.
The match began with Dortmund showing early promise, with a lower expected goals (xG) of 0.85 compared to Juventus' 1.36. However, Juventus took control of the game after an initial pressure phase from Dortmund.
Cambiaso's first goal came in the 15th-16th minute, a result of a cross from Pierre Kalulu, with Cambiaso positioned well to finish from close range despite a less-than-perfect touch. His second goal, scored later in the match, was a precise and powerful shot from an acute angle following a slick passing move involving Mario, David, and Yildiz.
Cambiaso's contributions were instrumental in Juventus' dominance throughout most of the game. He was active in attack, capitalizing on key chances, and helped Juventus maintain the lead throughout. His brace secured the victory, capping off a positive training stint for Juventus in Germany.
Statistical highlights of the match include Cambiaso's two goals being the entire scoring contribution for Juventus, Juventus' strong control for the majority of the match after the opening phase, and Yildiz having more touches in the Dortmund area than any other Juventus player.
Despite Dortmund's efforts, with Serhou Guirassy having two wayward efforts and Maximilian Beier shooting off-target, they were unable to match Juventus' attacking prowess. Mats Hummels, who spent 14 years with Dortmund before joining Roma last year, captained the team for the first 19 minutes before being replaced by Niklas Sule.
The match ended with Juventus leading 2-0, a consolation goal for Dortmund coming in the 89th minute from Baier. The loss marked the end of Niko Kovac's pre-season for Dortmund.
The upcoming Serie A opener for Juventus is against Parma on August 24, providing an exciting prospect for the team following their impressive preseason performance.
