Now Borussia Dortmund is also in the Europa League before the end. In the intermediate round first leg against Glasgow Rangers, BVB suffered an embarrassing bankruptcy. Will the turning point succeed in a week?
Another game to forget for Borussia Dortmund. After the end of the DFB Cup against St. Pauli and the mixed performances in the Bundesliga – now this: BVB lost 4-2 in the first leg of the second round in the Europa League against Glasgow Rangers. An embarrassment that in the end should be synonymous with a previously unanticipated exit from Europe.
And it was precisely this disgrace that forced the BVB bosses to act. According to information from “Sky”, there was a crisis meeting with Hans-Joachim Watzke, Michael Zorc, Sebastian Kehl and coach Marco Rose after the game against the Scots. Accordingly, the situation after the second violent home defeat with a total of nine goals in a row (previously 2:5 against Leverkusen) was analyzed.
Have the first consequences been discussed? Not clear. According to information from “Sky”, it seems certain that Marco Rose does not (yet) have to worry about his post. That could only change if the Champions League qualification is in danger. BVB is currently in second place in the Bundesliga, five points ahead of Leverkusen.
