Apparently, the Dortmunders don’t want to take any risks with Schlotterbeck because of a head injury, which is why he gives up the field. Kolo Muani promptly gets a small chance, but fails at Kobel from a very acute angle.

Tooor for Borussia Dortmund, 2:0 by Donyell Malen
Nevertheless, BVB meets! Kobel now puts the ball down for a free kick and then simply hits it far forward. Haller extends his head to Adeyemi, who jumps incredibly high. In turn, he extends Malen’s run, who scores again and makes it 2-0!

Yellow card for Randal Kolo Muani (Eintracht Frankfurt)
Kobel intercepts the corner kick that is due and wants to speed up the game when suddenly Kolo Muani puts his foot on the tee. This causes a lot of excitement and is punished with a warning.
22
18:53
Suddenly Götze is free! With a chip behind the defense, the game designer is sent into a supposedly direct duel with Kobel. However, at the last second, Hummels rushes in from the side and blocks the former Dortmunder’s shot!
21
18:53
So the defense of the black and yellow was really hot. Every important duel is won. In the meantime, mostly already on the center line, instead of in the last third.

18:49
Tooor for Borussia Dortmund, 1-0 through Jude Bellingham
Dortmund moves to the top of the table! A long ball relay ends in the goal of Frankfurt! Brandt gets the ball in the center of the penalty area and puts his outside instep across for Bellingham. With his back to goal, the Englishman turns in superbly, suddenly having a clear shot and then hits the bottom right of the net perfectly!
18
18:49
Several flanks whizzed into the sixteen of the guests without finding a pass station. For the moment there is still no target water. After all, Hummels prevents a counterattack by running Kolo Muani with a good overview.
16
18:47
In the meantime, BVB has moved the game further into the neutral zone and is building up a lot of possession. The black and yellow are already at 62 percent.
15
18:46
The central defender’s skull is buzzing, which is why the supervisors are on the pitch. After a short treatment, Schlotterbeck, who has just returned from a muscle fiber tear, continues.
14
18:45
Malen is allowed to take the free kick that is due, but he hits his own man who is standing in the wall. Somehow Schlotterbeck forgot that he should step aside.

18:42
Yellow card for Christopher Lenz (Eintracht Frankfurt)
For Dortmund there is a short chance, which is stopped abruptly with a foul by Jenz. However, it looks as if Haller would have threaded it. The warning is there anyway.
11.
18:41
Ten minutes have been played and we are waiting for a first conclusion. So far the teams have equalized.
10
18:41
The next offside position prevents a Dortmund attack, whereby the defense of the eagles was safe.
8th.
18:40
Götze shows a lot of wit, lets a pass through so that Kolo Muani can let the ball bounce into his run behind him. But the Frenchman was offside, which is why the attack is invalid.
7.
18:38
Now BVB is on the attack. On the left wing, Adeyemi pulls out a corner kick against Tuta. Guerreiro hits the ball in the center, but Frankfurt retains the air superiority.
6.
18:37
Kobel takes his time with the pass before he casually lobs the ball over the extended leg of the approaching Kolo Muani.
5.
18:36
At the beginning, the Hessians take over large parts of the possession of the ball. Although Dortmund win their duels in the back third, this system is not optimal at the moment.
3.
18:34
After losing the ball in midfield, Götze drives the ball towards the penalty area and sends Kolo Muani half-right to the baseline. There, however, the Frenchman loses his duel against Hummels.
1.
18:31
Frankfurt toasts. The ball rolls. Let the wild ride begin!
18:28
The last notes of “You’ll never walk alone” fade away and with that the teams emerge from the catacombs of Signal Iduna Park. It will not be long!
18:21
Deniz Aytekin traveled to Dortmund to referee this top game. Christian Dietz and Eduard Beitinger are supporting the experienced 44-year-old from Nuremberg with flags in their hands.
18:13
The first leg took place under completely different circumstances. Union Berlin led the table and Borussia Dortmund pushed Eintracht out of the Champions League ranks with a lucky 1-2 win. Julian Brandt and Jude Bellingham scored the goals in the game, which Daichi Kamada was able to equalize in the meantime.
18:05
At Eintracht it was more the start that went botched against Gladbach. Accordingly, Oliver Glasner is remodeling something. Kristijan Jakić is out with a calf problem, while Daichi Kamada and Rafael Borré are initially on the bench. Éric Dina-Ebimbe, Ansgar Knauff and Mario Götze, who is returning from a yellow card suspension, replace the trio.
17:57
With everything going fairly smoothly against Stuttgart up to the 78th minute, Edin Terzić understandably sees little reason to change the starting XI. However, Nico Schlotterbeck returns after recovering from a torn muscle fiber and is promptly back in the starting XI. Salih Özcan has to give way for this.
17:48
For the second time in a row, Eintracht from Frankfurt is allowed to play the top game. Last week, despite a convincing second half, it was only enough for a 1:1, with which the Eagles are still treading water. Eintracht is currently no longer even on an international level. However, that is exactly where it should go back, which is why they would be only too happy to thwart BVB’s championship ambitions.
17:39
Basically, everything has already been said about the last week. Borussia Dortmund made a fool of themselves in the 3:3 against VfB Stuttgart. Of course, as a result, all sorts of classic reasons were dug up again. Sebastian Kehl reacted relatively calmly and simply called for the championship as a goal. Four home wins are planned for this and with the first they could promptly jump back to the top. So three points are needed today!
17:30
The top game of the week is coming up. Borussia Dortmund can regain the top of the table against Eintracht Frankfurt from 6:30 p.m. Welcome!
