Unusual situation with the jersey
Fans were shocked by the events that unfolded in Turin during the first round of the Champions League. However, some were surprised to notice that Girassi, 29, stepped onto the field in a special jersey.
Cameras captured that the forward had no name on the back of the jersey. Instead, 'Dortmund' appeared twice on the kit, along with the number 9.
Fans began discussing the situation on social media, blaming the teams for an error. One fan asked:
“Why does Girassi not have a name on the jersey?”Another added:
“The equipment team messed up – 'Dortmund' is written twice on the back of Girassi's jersey.”A third asked:
“Interesting, why doesn't Girassi have a name on the jersey.”
However, this mistake did not prevent Girassi from showing great play; he became an important figure in the dynamic match, which ended with eight goals in the second half.
The player from Guinea assisted Karim Adeyemi for the first goal in the 52nd minute, after which Kenan Yudiz equalized 11 minutes later. Felix Nmecha put the guests ahead again in the 65th minute, but Juventus equalized two minutes later thanks to Dusan Vlahovic. Jan Kutu scored the third goal for Dortmund in the 74th minute, and a penalty goal from Rami Bensebaini in the 86th minute - after a foul on Girassi - seemed decisive. However, the Bianconeri managed to save the match thanks to goals from Vlahovic and Kelli in stoppage time.
This game became a bright start to the Champions League for both teams, showcasing their resilience and desire to succeed. The unusual situation with Girassi's jersey added intrigue to an already tense match, capturing the attention of football fans.
