Hertha Berlin's new signing Suat Serdar scored the first brace of his career on Sunday as his club moved off the foot of the Bundesliga table with their first points this season after a 3-1 win at Bochum.

The 24-year-old Germany midfielder, who was signed from relegated Schalke for around eight million euros ($9.5 million dollars), scored his opening goal for Hertha on 37 minutes, then reacted quickest to a mistake in the defence just before the break.
