The massive coup for Dortmund that beat Augsburg and overtook Bayern before the final day

Borussia Dortmund won in Augsburg (3-0) and took advantage that could be decisive within a week, thanks to a brace from Ivorian international Sebastien Haller. BVB has a two-point lead over Bayern Munich going into the final day of the tournament.

The opportunity presented by Bayern Munich was very good, and Borussia Dortmund did not miss it this time, it missed the boat many times this season. Unable to win away from home since February 25, BVB defeated their demons in Augsburg (3-0), and lo and behold, they are now two points clear of Bayern Munich at the top of the German championship.

In the day since the end of the championship, Borussia Dortmund have certainly taken a decisive step towards the title that has eluded them since 2012. If they put an end to Bavarian dominance next Saturday, against Mainz, Sebastien Haller’s teammates will undoubtedly remember that the switch will happen in Bavaria, but Not in Bayern’s park.

Deprived of Jude Bellingham, and replaced in midfield by Portuguese international Rafael Guerrero, Borussia Dortmund has clearly dominated the team fighting for maintenance. The first period, which was very hot in the Augsburg goal, could have turned in Borosen’s favor without making three crucial saves from Tomas Kubik, who hit 14 shots in the first half, including a header from Niklas Sule at the post.

Kobek has delayed the deadline too long

In complete control of its subject matter at 11 for 11, in the wake of Julian Brandt, BVB emerged even more illustrious in numerical superiority, after the dismissal of Felix Odokai (38). Unsettled to find themselves facing an eleven-on-ten against a tighter block, BVB continued to get chances, without succeeding in building concrete. But brutal events followed one another when the match resumed, such as this shot from Chan’s right hitting Koubek’s right post, which was accompanied by success.

It was a thriller on the bench for coach Edin Terzic, who saw his side face a boundary seen too many times this season in facing low blocks, a new, improbable scenario that foreshadowed every moment, while the result was stale. It was still 0-0. It was without counting on the stubbornness of the Ivorian Sebastien Haller who, after a few weeks of overcoming the disease, showed the way to his partners.

Taking advantage of poor control from Maximilian Bauer, the striker deceived the goalkeeper with a cross shot that was perfectly placed at the level of the ground (58th). An opener that could have liberated BVB players, on the contrary paralyzed them at first. Under pressure against a team that had shrunk to ten, Borussia shocked defensively, and resumed its forward march in the final moments of the match.

Decisive twice in the last 10 minutes, Koubek finally succumbed to the calm and instinct of Sebastien Haller, scoring a brace in the 84th minute. After a long frustration, Julian Brandt managed to eliminate the suspense in extra time (90 + 3). Borussia Dortmund pulled off a huge blow in the title race. Next week, in Westfalenstadion, the Ruhr club can lift its ninth title in its history in the Bundesliga.
