Боруссия Д - Вердер 2:2

Borussia Dortmund failed to secure a win in their recent Bundesliga match against Werder Bremen, settling for a 2-2 draw. This result extends their winless streak and raises concerns just days before their crucial UEFA Champions League encounter with Shakhtar Donetsk.

The dismissal of Nuri Şahin seemed to have a positive initial impact on the team, as they took a two-goal lead thanks to a strike from Girassy and an own goal by Friedl. However, fatigue and defensive lapses cost Dortmund dearly. Bittencourt pulled one back for Werder, and Ducksch capitalized on defensive errors to equalize, leaving the home side frustrated.

Despite the draw, this match marked Dortmund’s first points in the Bundesliga in 2025.
