Shirt sported by Serhou Guirassy (Dortmund) in his outing against Juventus, carries a comedic vibe.
In a thrilling 4-4 draw between Juventus and Borussia Dortmund at the Allianz Stadium in Turin, Serhou Guirassy, the Guinean international footballer, made an unexpected appearance. Despite wearing a Borussia Dortmund jersey, Guirassy's number 9 shirt had a rare printing error – instead of his name, "Dortmund" was printed twice on the back.
The match marked Guirassy's first Champions League encounter of the current season with Dortmund. Interestingly, the striker is a former player of Rennes and is best known for his impressive record in the Champions League. In a previous season, Guirassy finished as the top scorer with 13 goals in 14 matches, a record he currently holds.
However, during the match against Juventus, Guirassy could not add to his tally. Despite the unique jersey mix-up, the striker was unable to score a Champions League goal.
In the 86th minute, Guirassy earned a penalty for Dortmund, but it was Niko Kovac, the coach, who insisted on Ramy Bensebaini taking the shot. The penalty situation became a topic of discussion after the match, with Kovac expressing regret over how it was handled.
It is believed that Guirassy likely changed jerseys during halftime, as his usual jersey had a "Guirassy" flocage, but during the second half, he wore a jersey with the inscription "Dortmund" above and below the number 9. Unfortunately, a second approved jersey was not available for Guirassy during the match.
Despite the unusual circumstances, the match between Juventus and Dortmund was an exciting encounter, ending in a draw and leaving both teams hungry for more in the Champions League.
