After suffering a 2-1 defeat against Bayern Munich last weekend, Borussia Dortmund (4th place) aimed to bounce back against Cologne (8th place) in the 8th round of the Bundesliga on Saturday. Despite dominating possession with 70% and outshooting Cologne 27 to 5, including 9 shots on target, Niko Kovač’s team struggled to find the net against goalkeeper Marvin Schwäbe. The breakthrough finally came in the dying moments of the match when Maximilian Beier scored in the 90+6 minute, securing a 1-0 victory at Signal Iduna Park.
This narrow win (1-0) lifts Borussia Dortmund to third place in the standings, just two points behind RB Leipzig in second. Cologne remains in eighth position.
