BERLIN -- Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang scored a hat trick on his Bundesliga debut to give Borussia Dortmund a 4-0 win at Augsburg in the opening round of the German league on Saturday. Gabon international Aubameyang -- a 13 million-euro ($17 million) off-season signing from French side Saint-Etienne -- opened the scoring in the 24th minute, made the game safe in the 66th, and added another in the 79th before Robert Lewandowski scored from a penalty kick with four minutes remaining. "We got great goals and finished the game with confidence. Not many win 4-0 here. That makes me proud," Dortmund coach Juergen Klopp said. Hertha Berlin celebrated its return to the Bundesliga with a 6-1 rout of visiting Eintracht Frankfurt, thanks to two goals each from Adrian Ramos and Sami Allagui and one each from Ronny and German-American defender John Anthony Brooks. Bayer Leverkusen won 3-1 at home over Freiburg, Hannover beat nine-man Wolfsburg 2-0 at home, and Nuremberg drew 2-2 at Hoffenheim. Zlatko Junuzovics late strike gave Werder Bremen a 1-0 win at Eintracht Braunschweig in the late game, denying the home side a winning return to the Bundesliga after 28 years. "Something was missing for 28 years," proclaimed a large banner before kickoff, but the closest Braunschweig came to scoring was in the 64th, when Ken Reichels shot crashed off the crossbar. Bremen keeper Sebastian Mielitz just got his fingertips to the ball. Junuzovic scored in the 82nd, lifting the ball over the goalkeeper against the run of play. Braunschweigs hopes of an equalizer were dashed when Jan Hochscheidts shot was blocked on the line in the 88th. "We created enough chances in the second half. Its just a shame we couldnt make more of them," said Braunschweig captain Dennis Kruppke. The 24-year-old Aubameyang became only the sixth player in the Bundesliga to score a hat trick on his debut. He beat a defender to meet Marcel Schmelzers cross with a header beyond the helpless Augsburg keeper. Marco Reus set up his second, which Aubameyang curled around the goalkeeper inside the far post. Aubameyang rounded the goalkeeper for his third, tucking the ball into the empty net, after Lewandowski had played the ball into his path. "Aubameyang was put to great use today. Im not surprised about what he offers, but that all the balls go in already. Its a very good start," Klopp said. Lewandowski added a fourth with an emphatic penalty, after Jonas Hofmann was fouled in the area. Despite the scoreline, Dortmund found it hard to break down the stubborn home side. Augsburg might have equalized in the first half but for a goal-line clearance from Sven Bender, while reserve goalkeeper Mitch Langerak pulled off a great save from Raphael Holzhauser. Langerak maintained his record of 11 wins from 11 competitive games for Dortmund. "Of course were disappointed. We imagined and hoped for it to go a little differently," said Augsburg coach Markus Weinzierl. "Our mistakes were punished ruthlessly." Ramos scored Herthas first goal back in the Bundesliga following a well-worked counterattack in the 18th, and Brooks made it 2-0 by shooting through a host of players in the 32nd. Alexander Meier pulled one back from the penalty spot five minutes later, but Allagui scored twice in as many minutes to decide the game with half an hour remaining, before Ramos and then Ronny completed the rout. "The performance was sensational. Now we have the first three points, we can enjoy the game a little bit. But well be back in everyday life very quickly. We can still improve," Hertha coach Jos Luhukay said. It was the first time since December 2004 that Hertha scored six goals in a Bundesliga game. The home side also hit the crossbar three times in the first half. "Its hard for me to analyze such a game," Frankfurt coach Armin Veh said. Freiburg striker Mike Hanke cancelled out Stefan Kiesslings opening goal for Leverkusen, but Son Heung-min scored his first Bundesliga goal for Leverkusen just after the break and Sidney Sam secured the win in the 52nd. Leon Andreasen and Szabolcs Huszti scored for Hannover, either side of the sendings off of Maximilian Arnold and Timm Klose for Wolfsburg. Mike Frantz and Daniel Ginczek drew Nuremberg level at Hoffenheim, which had gone ahead through David Abraham and Anthony Modeste. The home side was left to rue a goal that wasnt given in first half injury time, when the ball came back out over the line due to the spin from Kevin Vollands lob over the goalkeeper. "Its annoying that such a goal was stolen but I dont want to accuse anyone. Its hard for the linesman to see. It was hard for me to see," Volland said. Referee Thorsten Kinhoefer said the match officials realized the mistake at halftime. "Where people judge, mistakes happen. Its very annoying that we made this mistake today," Kinhoefer said.

"We always knew that we had to be a good defence," coach Oscar Pareja said. "We knew that if we played good defence, we would find ways to score goals." The blueprint was in play in a 2-0 win over Chivas USA on Saturday night. "Our defence was one of our weaknesses we had last year," Pareja said. "What we put in our players minds was that we needed to defend better, be solid defensively and the goals would come." Atiba Harris scored in the 11th minute and Nathan Sturgis added a late goal for Colorado (5-4-4), which extended its unbeaten streak to five matches (3-0-2). "Defence is what you build your team off of," Sturgis said. "You try to finish (your scoring chances) and the last couple of games we have put teams away." The Rapids are unbeaten in six home games against Chivas USA, and have eight wins and two ties in their last 10 against the Los Angeles club overall since losing on March 21, 2009. Rapids goalkeeper Clint Irwin is 5-2-4 with five shutouts since taking over for injured Matt Pickens, who is out several months because of a broken right forearm. Chivas USA (3-6-2) has been outscored 13-1 in four straight losses. "Weve had a lot of roster moves to make and theese arent my players," said Chivas coach Jose Luis Sanchez Sola.dddddddddddd "One player plays a 4-4-2 and another plays a different system and it will take time." Neither team had a shot on goal until Christopher Klute found Harris behind the defence in the 11th minute. The defences dominated play for most of opening half. Chivas USAs offence came alive over a seven-minute stretch, getting free for several shots. Gabriel Farfan broke free from just outside the penalty box, but had his shot sail into the stands in the 22nd minute. Bobby Burlings shot went off the side of the goal and Farfan had a shot easily handled by Irwin, who made only one save in the half. Colorado was aggressive enough to draw fouls and two yellow cards in the waning moments of the half. Scoring chances remained at a premium in the second half. Deshorn Brown broke free for a shot that was deflected wide of the right post in the 56th minute Irwin made an easy save on a shot by Eric Avila in the 69th. Brown set up Sturgis goal in the 78th minute. The win completed a season series sweep by the Rapids, who also won the April 13th meeting 1-0. "We have given up too many goals in as many weeks and it hasnt been good for us," Burling said. "It is a tough stretch and only the people in the locker room can change it." ' ' '
