Algerian defender Bensebajní put Borussia, who had not won the two previous away games at Union Berlin and Stuttgart, ahead in the 43rd minute with a header from the edge of the penalty box.
In the 78th minute, Smith equalized with a fine long-range shot, but minutes later he cheered more than 81,000 fans at the Signal Iduna Park Guirassy stadium. Last year’s Bundesliga second-highest scorer, who arrived from Stuttgart in the summer, scored a header to send Dortmund into fourth place ahead of the weekend’s fixtures.
