Cold. Bland. Uninspiring. You may struggle to get it down, but that old morning brew still does the job at 3pm. Dortmund did just that on this Friday away game at Augsburg, securing the three points as planned. And Guirassy, who had been on a six game scoreless run, got the goal. Beyond that, the […]

The second round of the DFB-Pokal was concluded last night. There were few major upsets, with Holstein Kiel’s 1-0 victory over Wolfsburg perhaps the most notable. However, the biggest story from the midweek fixtures took place in a tie between two 2. Bundesliga teams. Sixth-placed Darmstadt gave top-of-the-table Schalke an absolute shellacking on their way […]

Borussia Dortmund were incredibly unlucky to draw against Frankfurt in the second round of the DFB-Pokal, and the game proved to be just as tight as expected. It was the old boys coming back to haunt BVB in the first half, as Ansgar Knauff opened the scoring early off a Mario Götze assist. Julian Brandt […]

We are still two months away from the Winter Transfer Window but that does not mean it is too early for a transfer rumor or two.

In the words of Tommy Shelby from Peaky Blinders, “there is no rest for me in this world”, and neither is there any for Borussia Dortmund at the moment.

Although Borussia Dortmund have been playing well so far this season, beating this season iteration of 1. FC Köln was never going to an easy task. Lukas Kwasniok’s side have been very impressive this season, and The Billy Goats have been especially impressive in defense, only allowing 10 goals before tonight’s match in The Westfalenstadion. […]

With the new Champions League format, every win matters. There are only eight teams that are guaranteed to make it into the Round of 16 without needing to go through a playoff.
