“I had enough chance” – Dortmund are defeated by Bayern in the greatest battle
Still nothing! For the fourth time in a row, Lucien Favre and Borussia Dortmund failed to take points from Serie A champions Bayern Munich. Dortmund lost their best match of the 7th round in the Bundesliga at home to defending champions 2: 3.

In the end, it was a small consolation for Borussia Dortmund and Lucien Favre: as in the previous May in the decisive match, they met the winner of the Champions League this time largely on an equal footing. In all relevant areas – ball possession, shots on goal, tackling, passing accuracy – the statisticians showed more or less a stalemate.
Only in one thing Bayern had a decisive advantage: their strikers were more efficient because they brought more quality to the pitch. On the Borussia side, Erling Haaland’s pass did not find Marco Reus, while Robert Lewandowski used Serge Gnabry’s pass – 2: 1 for Bayern (48th).

Lewandowski, who once started his Bundesliga career at Dortmund, was successful for Bayern in the 13th duel with BVB for the 17th time. The Pole also had his foot in the game in the decisive 3-1. After the preparatory work, Leroy met Sané from the edge of the area (80 °). Dortmund’s connecting goal with Haaland brought back the tension (83rd), but Borussia had no more than a good chance with Reus.

As a result, Bayern are now three points clear of Dortmund after their fifth consecutive win. RB Leipzig (3-0 against Freiburg) rank between the two rivals. And in Dortmund the debate that Favre cannot win the important games will probably start again. The Swiss has indeed lost four times in a row against the Bundesliga record champions. But in the four seasons before Favre’s time, Dortmund have been defeated by Bayern six times in eight games – which is why Munich has been number 1 in Germany since 2012/13. After the outcome of Saturday’s match, nothing will change in 2020/21.
