Dortmund run riot

Borussia Dortmund ran riot on Wednesday as they demolished second-division Paderborn 7-1 to book their place in the third round of the German Cup.

With top scorer Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang on the bench, right-winger Gonzalo Castro was Paderborn's main tormentor with two goals and two assists in Dortmund's biggest win of the season so far.

Paderborn took a shock lead through ex-Wolfsburg striker Srdjan Lakic after 21 minutes, but it lasted just four minutes as Thomas Tuchel's team let the goals fly.

Colombia striker Adrian Ramos slotted home the hosts' first, then set up Castro before Japan midfielder Shinji Kagawa netted just before the half-time whistle to make it 3-1 at the break.

Dortmund's Germany midfielder Ilkay Gundogan then netted a penalty before Castro claimed their fifth.

Henrikh Mkhitaryan set up Lukasz Piszczek for a tap in, then slammed home the seventh himself just before the final whistle.

This was the first defeat for Paderborn's new coach ex-Germany international Stefan Effenberg.
