The rapid equalization gave the Duisburgers tailwind, which gave them a great chance to make it 2-1 through Rolf Feltscher. The defender headed just wide of the goal on the right after a cross from Stoppelkamp (14′).
Hettwer misses a great opportunity to lead MSV
Overall, there was more idleness in the game after the two quick goals. The pressure on the hosts, who were in a relegation battle, was much greater than that on BVB’s reserves, who had already collected 35 points.
The Duisburg defied the pressure and remained the more dangerous team. In the 40th minute, Hettwer had the next big chance to take the lead. After preparatory work by Niclas Stierlin, he ran alone towards Luca Unbehaun. The 18-year-old would have the BVBkeepers could even turn left, but tried a lob, which he placed next to the goal.
Another quick penalty for BVB
This negligent handling of chances didn’t take revenge before the break, but it did shortly afterwards when the referee, much to the annoyance of Duisburg, awarded the guests another penalty. The whistle was justified because Caspar Jander had knocked Dortmund’s Taz off his feet on the penalty area line, but Duisburg had previously seen an unpunished foul on Marvin Knoll on the center line, where he lay injured.
The referee didn’t see anything and allowed the penalty to be taken after reassuring Duisburg with a yellow card for Knoll, among other things. As in the first half, Taz converted safely (51st). Without having recorded any significant chances from the game, the guests took the lead for the second time.
Stoppelkamp fails on post
This time the Duisburg didn’t find a quick answer. In the 55th minute, Stoppelkamp shot at the BVB goal from a similar position as in the 1-1 draw, but Unbehaun easily punched the central shot out of the danger zone.
The hosts made it eleven minutes better when the Duisburg defense acted unluckily again. Taz sent Njinmah with a pass into the interface towards the MSV goal and Knoll, despite good position, was unable to stop it. Njinmah rounded goalkeeper Weinkauf and pushed the ball into the goal to make it 3-1.
When Stoppelkamp failed after a pass by Knoll with a long-range shot on the post (69th), it was tantamount to a preliminary decision. The Duisburg could not shorten any more and remained in the seventh home game in a row without a win and in the fourth in a row without a point.
