Paco Alcacer has become the first player in Bundesliga history to score 10 goals as a substitute in a single season.
The 25-year-old has been in inspiration form for Borussia Dortmund since joining on a season-long loan from Barcelona in August.
The Spaniard is currently the leading goalscorer in the Bundesliga with 12 strikes, made even more impressive by the fact he’s been used off the bench in seven out of his 11 appearances in the league this term.
Alcacer has now scored in his first seven appearances as a substitute, netting 10 times in those seven matches, including a neat finish against Dusseldorf on Tuesday.
10 – @paco93alcacer is the first player in #Bundesliga history to score 10 goals as a substitute in a single season, already surpassing the record after just 16 matchdays (previously held by Nils Petersen and Ioan Ganea, 9). Phenomenon. #F95BVB @BlackYellow pic.twitter.com/VRTmvRXvjh
