Bayer Leverkusen – BVB: Now one of the games of the season
Fourth game, next spectacle: When Borussia Dortmund plays in this Bundesliga season, it won’t be boring. 22 goals have been scored so far with BVB participation, an average of 5.5 in each game.
The duel against Leverkusen was seamless and has its own spectacular history anyway. In the past ten games between the two teams, there have been 50 goals. The encounter on Saturday afternoon mimicked the clash in February 2020, which took several turns and was won by Bayer 4-3.
This time it went back and forth with the same end result, there was a breathless up and down with intense duels, many switching situations and scoring opportunities on both sides. Actually, the encounter did not deserve a winner.
It was the much-quoted advertisement for the Bundesliga and certainly the best game of the young season so far. There will probably not be many more eventful duels this season. However, it is not only in the Bundesliga that there are not enough games in this category now, playful poverty and monotony often rule.
The fact that Dortmund put away three deficits in Leverkusen and still won in the end should definitely give the Westphalians an enormous boost for the start of the English weeks. The often asked question about the mentality has been answered for the moment, because the late 3-2 winner against Hoffenheim on the previous matchday was an expression of the greed that is in the BVB team and exemplified by players such as Erling Haaland, Jude Bellingham and Gregor Kobel is embodied.
