Dortmund against Leipzig. After a week with three defeats in three competitions from Madrid to Wolfsburg, Borussia‘s nerves were once again on edge. Then Leipzig, undefeated in 19 Bundesliga games, came to the Westfalenstadion, and half the Dortmund squad had to take a break because of stomach, leg and back problems. On the substitutes’ bench sat an experienced professional (Donyell Malen) and next to him a number of guys with shirt numbers in the mid-double-digit range. On the pitch, the double six Pascal Groß and Emre Can found themselves in the defensive line. The first Leipzig attack ran between the two. An Openda backheel trick and a Šeško backheel kick later, the ball was in the net. At this point Dortmund could have collapsed.
