Borussia Dortmund 3-1 Hertha Berlin: Hummels, Aubameyang and Ramos maintain hosts' perfect start

Thomas Tuchel remains unbeaten as Borussia Dortmund head coach after Sunday's 3-1 victory over Hertha Berlin in the Bundesliga.
Since replacing Jurgen Klopp, Tuchel had overseen seven victories in all competitions and goals from Mats Hummels, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Adrian Ramos increased that winning run to eight matches on Sunday.
Dortmund withstood some early Hertha pressure at Signal Iduna Park before Hummels broke the deadlock with his first goal at home since March 2014.

A sensational pass from Shinji Kagawa led to Dortmund's second goal just after the restart, with Matthias Ginter rolling the ball into Aubameyang to apply the finish.
Any hopes they had of keeping a clean sheet disappeared after 78 minutes as Roman Burki was beaten for the first time this season by Salomon Kalou.
Neverthless, Dortmund were not to be denied three points and an injury-time strike from Adrian Ramos ensured they top the table on goal difference from Bayern Munich.
