BVB bankruptcy against Leipzig: Can and Kehl are stunned by mistakes!

Red Bull Arena, Leipzig, Deutschland - On March 16, 2025, Borussia Dortmund had to take a bitter defeat when she was 0: 2 against RB Leipzig. This bankruptcy fell immediately after an encouraging 2-1 win against Lille OSC, with which the Dortmunders had qualified for the quarter-finals of the Champions League. The sports director of Borussia Dortmund, Sebastian Kehl, expressed extremely annoyed about the second goal after the game, which resulted from a standard situation, more precisely from a corner kick. He criticized the defensive assignment in such situations and pointed out that similar difficulties had already occurred in the previous game against Augsburg, which Dortmund had also narrowed.

Captain Emre Can found that the exploitation of opportunities was a decisive factor for the defeat. Despite a variety of top -class possibilities in the second half, the team could not score. "In the end, the victories count," said Can, who made his disappointment over the current table situation clear. Pascal Groß also addressed the weak performance in the first half and criticized the multitude of missed opportunities. Some degrees were good, but many more were not used by less quality.
