“Leipzig’s Support Helps Dortmund Overtake Bayern, Darmstadt Promoted: Bundesliga Matchday 33 Highlights”

Borussia Dortmund used the through ball from Leipzig and did his own homework: BVB won 3-0 at FC Augsburg and is one game day before the end of the season leaders! Black and yellow created numerous chances before Sebastian Haller redeemed the outnumbered Dortmunders in the 58th minute with his 1:0. “The last few weeks have been turbulent, with the games against Stuttgart and Bochum. It’s a load off our hearts for the time being,” said Julian Brandtwho after Haller’s second goal shortly before the end then made it 3-0.

“The city will burn next week, we will prepare well for a heated game with a good atmosphere,” Brandt looked forward to the 34th match day: If BVB wins against Mainz 05 at home, then Dortmund is German champion! “You have to look at the history of this club, how often we became German champions: on average every ten years. This year we’ve been at it longer than we’ve been in a long time,” said an extremely focused Edin Terzic after his boys’ 3-0 win Augsburg. “Now we have to sleep six more times, wake up once, give it our all. And then hopefully we can finally hold the championship trophy in our hands,” said Terzic.

The numerous Dortmund fans who traveled with us are sure that this will work out: “Only BVB will be German champions”, the black and yellow chanted in the away block again and again after the 1-0 lead and until the final whistle. For the title he, Terzic, and his team will do everything in the coming days, also for the fans: “We need these emotions, we only have a chance if we really believe in it. We need emotions from the ranks, in the city .We’re taking care of the sporting side so we can put in a good game next week.” For the first championship title since 2012.

If FC Bayern should stumble again in the fight for the title, it would most likely be against the third-placed team RB Leipzig. This assessment should not only have come to BVB, but also elsewhere in the football-loving landscape. The fact that the record champions could not refute this thesis so shortly before the finish line is something that Borussia Dortmund can primarily tell the RBL goalscorer Konrad Laimer, Christopher Nkunku and Dominik Szoboszlai owe. Before the top game, the latter was greeted by his friend and BVB professional Karim Adeyemi with the words “Please do your best!” fueled. “Of course we concentrated on ourselves and qualifying for the Champions League, but the win was also for him. Now Dortmund have it in their own hands,” added Szoboszlai, who unpacked Adeyemi’s jubilation after his goal.

9:7 shots on goal and an xGoals value of 2.4 to 1.7 after the break left Leipzig a furious 0:1 lasting 64 minutes into a 3:1 convert. “We gave it our all in the second half. We had more intensity and implemented our quality better,” said Laimer, who got the first RBL competitive win at FCB rolling under the bar with his right-footed shot. The support for black and yellow is still nothing more than a nice side effect for the Saxons. Leipzig has “finally achieved” its goal for the season (Captain Willi Orban) and will take part in the Champions League for the fifth time in a row. The “Red Bulls” can no longer take third place on the last day of the game when Schalke, who are threatened with relegation, are guests. And the DFB Cup final against Frankfurt is still on the program a week later. RBL still has the opportunity to provide topics of conversation in the Federal Republic.

>>> Greetings to Dortmund: Leipzig is celebrating in Munich

Bright sunshine, 70,692 spectators in the Olympic Stadium and a spirited performance by the team from Hertha BSC. Actually, all the requirements for a perfect day for the “old lady” were met – actually. Instead, shortly before half past five, the sixth relegation of the capital club from the Bundesliga was certain. “I can’t realize it yet, it’s just sad,” said a tear-stained man Kevin-Prince Boateng after the home game, his first as Hertha captain and the last one in the Bundesliga for the time being. Not just for the homegrown talent that will end his career after the season.

Pal Dardai was more composed and analytical: “We had five or six huge counterattack chances. You just have to score goals. We didn’t get relegated today, that’s my opinion,” the coach said. “We don’t have to be ashamed of today’s performance” – and therefore doubly annoyed. In fact, Hertha had more than enough chances to decide the game, especially in the second round. Joker bet the best opportunity Chidera Ejuke hit the post in the 90th minute.

Four minutes later met Berlin expert Kevin Schlotterbeck for the 1:1 final score. The ex-Unioner had already scored for Bochum in the first half of the season and a year ago converted his penalty shoot-out attempt in the DFB Cup final for SC Freiburg at the same place. His last-minute equalizer now ensured that Bochum, in addition to bottom Hertha, definitely also ahead of the FC Schalke 04 goes into the last matchday.

In the relegation battle, it remains extremely exciting despite the now safe, direct descent from Hertha. The TSG Hoffenheim could at furious 4:2 home win against 1. FC Union Berlin Earn big points and is almost certain to stay up in the league. Above all, the spectacle in Sinsheim stood out Andrej Kramaric, who put the Kraichgauer on the road to victory with a brace. Unlike in Kraichgau, the pot continues to tremble even after the 33rd matchday. The boys from Castroper Strasse are one point ahead of FC Schalke after winning a point in the last minute in the Olympic Stadium. However, hope has not yet died for royal blue!

The Gelsenkirchen came against in the home game Eintracht Frankfurt not more than a 2-2, which after the late equalizer through Sebastian Polter (85th) but more than one point won should feel like a lost point. Due to the one goal better goal difference, S04 could possibly be enough to overtake Bochum on the last day of the game in Leipzig. A prerequisite for this would be a defeat of VfL in the home game against Bayer 04 Leverkusen. A big winner of the 33rd match day was meanwhile VfB Stuttgart: With a brilliant 4:1 win at 1. FSV Mainz 05 the Swabians pushed past Bochum and Schalke in 15th place and in the final round they have direct relegation in the home game against Hoffenheim in their own hands. High tension is guaranteed next Saturday in the relegation battle!

The third match point was there! After seven months at the top of the table in the 2nd Bundesliga and two defeats in a row, the SV Darmstadt 98 in the home game against 1. FC Magdeburg prematurely made promotion perfect. Phillip Tietz’ goal to make it 1-0 secured the “Lilien” the season’s points 65 to 67. It was already clear on Friday evening that only the second-placed team from Heidenheim could catch up with the SVD. After the pursuer won 1-0, the championship title in the 2nd Bundesliga will be decided on the last matchday.
