Post-Match Report

Facts: Commitment and efficiency

Borussia Dortmund scored four goals from 17 shots at goal, while Freiburg scored only one from 12. The 4-1 win was the Black & Yellows' biggest on the road this Bundesliga season.

Commitment: The Dortmund players ran 122.1km – that is over three kilometres more than their Freiburg counterparts (118.8km), who are among the hardest-running teams in the Bundesliga.

Favourite foe: BVB beat SC Freiburg for the seventh successive time and moved to within one point of the Breisgau outfit courtesy of the victory.

Big victory: The last time Borussia Dortmund scored four goals away from home was in a 4-0 win in Cologne in January 2024.

Milestone: Emre Can recorded his 100th Bundesliga victory.

Strong first start: Carney Chukwuemeka contested the most challenges of any player (27), winning a good 59% of them, and completed an outstanding 95% of his passes. He scored his first goal for BVB and initiated the goal that made it 3-0.

Brace part two: Maximilian Beier provided two assists in one match for BVB for the first time, having registered his first brace of the campaign a week earlier.

First: Jamie Gittens' 12th Bundesliga goal was the first he has scored with his head. He made his 100th competitive appearance for Dortmund.

Goal-getter: Serhou Guirassy scored his eighth second half-season goal – that's the most in the Bundesliga.

Dortmund opted for a compact approach in defence and midfield and were happy to give Ingolstadt the ball for the most part. However, the visitors created little danger at first.

After a cross, Ingolstadt's Yannick Deichmann laid the ball off to striker Pascal Testroet, who fired past BVB keeper Marcel Lotka to give the visitors a 1-0 lead.<\/p>\nFollowing the opening goal, the game ebbed and flowed until the 31st minute. A defensive header from Franz Roggow was seized on by Kjell Wätjen, who sprinted into space and set off on a fantastic solo run. The 19-year-old sprinted around three defenders and then fired home from 18 metres to equalise the score at 1-1. The Black & Yellows immediately followed up: just four minutes after the equaliser, Tony Reitz delivered a free-kick from a half-right position into Ingolstadt's area. After a scramble, the ball landed centrally at the feet of Michael Eberwein, with the veteran making no mistake to fire home and bring the score to 2-1.<\/p>\nAfter Dortmund's second goal, Zimmermann's team became more dominant: Kjell Wätjen failed to score his brace shortly before the break after being played in by Franz Roggow. Borussia put the promotion hopefuls under pressure with a handful of effective attacking moves and went into the break with a 2-1 lead.<\/p>\nThe second half was even more entertaining for the spectators at the Rote Erde. Just 25 seconds after the restart, Michael Eberwein scored another goal for Borussia. BVB were the dominant team, but missed several opportunities to increase their lead. Then the visitors made their comeback: from a simple throw-in, Zimmermann's U23 team conceded the equaliser scored by Ingolstadt's Tim Heike (55).<\/p>\nJordi Paulina had the chance to put BVB back in front just a few seconds later: the Dutchman was alone in front of Ingolstadt's goal after a set-piece, but fired the ball over the bar. Tony Reitz did better minutes later, receiving the ball from Franz Roggow at the edge of the box and finishing with a powerful shot to make it 3-2 (68). It was just reward for a strong display by Borussia.<\/p>\nWith 17 shots on goal to none, the Black & Yellows were clearly the superior team, but still squandered numerous great chances. Dortmund's top scorer Julian Hettwer made his comeback in the 75th minute, having not featured so far in the 2025 calendar year due to a back injury. Kjell Wätjen, who had been outstanding up to that point, left the pitch with an injury.<\/p>\n<img src=\"/content/dam/bvbweb/en/news/u23/2025/04/06/spielbericht-ingolstadt/U23-Hettwer.jpg\" data-assetref=\"U23-Hettwer-1743953318875\"><\/p>\nGoalkeeper Marcel Lotka was unfortunate to let a header from Ingolstadt's Ryan Malone fall in front of him in the 81st minute and Pascal Testroet got a touch on the ball to equalise the scores at 3-3.

For Oldenburg, on the other hand, it was all about defending sixth place against TuS Metzingen - or, in the best-case scenario, even moving up to fifth. BVB and Oldenburg had previously met 27 times in the Bundesliga and DHB-Pokal. The Black & Yellows had come out on top 15 times and the Lower Saxons ten times, with two draws.

Not an easy task, as not only Olsson and Antl had to be replaced in the pivot, but also Langer and Degenhardt in the backcourt. Henk Groener had decided to field Deborah Lassource in the pivot position.<\/p>\nOldenburg put up a good fight, especially with their famously stingy defence. BVB were just 2-0 up after six minutes. Oldenburg's Merle Lampe scored the first goal for the visitors after seven minutes to bring the score to 2-1. Goals remained in short supply in this hectic, fast-paced game from both sides. Oldenburg, with the ex-Borussia player Madita Kohorst in goal, were well prepared for BVB's passing game and repeatedly intercepted the ball. Merle Lampe equalised after ten minutes to make it 3-3. \n<\/p>\nThe score was 6-6 after 18 minutes, reason enough for Henk Groener to call his first time-out. The coach called for more movement in attack - even without the ball. Goalkeeper Sarah Wachter immediately put this into practice: BVB pulled 9-6 ahead after 20 minutes thanks to a great pass across the length of the court to Kelly Vollebregt. The run continued: it was Kelly Vollebregt again who increased the lead to 12-7 (23). Oldenburg continued to struggle in attack against BVB's solid defence and were denied twice by Sarah Wachter from seven-metre penalties in the first half alone. At the other end, Madita Kohorst saved a seven-metre penalty against Dana Bleckmann. BVB went into the break with a four-goal lead at 14-10.<\/p>\n<img src=\"/content/dam/bvbweb/en/news/handball/2025/04/05/spielbericht-oldenburg/Handball-Oldenburg-2.jpg\" data-assetref=\"Handball-Oldenburg-2-1743884231865\"><\/p>\nIn the second half, Henk Groener brought on Lara Egeling on the left wing, who increased the lead to 16-12 (33), with Carmen Campos coming on at the back. On the other side, Oldenburg's Head Coach Niels Bötel brought on international Toni-Luisa Reinemann at left-back. BVB's concentration and control of the game were lost, as the team's retreating defence left much to be desired. It was just as well that Sarah Wachter saved her third seven-metre penalty against Merle Lampe. The dogged Oldenburg side were back to within one goal at 18-17 after 40 minutes.<\/p>\nBVB went into crunch time 22-20 in front. However, that meant little. When Pam Korsten reduced the deficit to 23-22 (53) with a seven-metre penalty. BVB's lead was down to just one goal. Four minutes before the final whistle, it was Reinemann who put Oldenburg 26-25 in front for the first time in the evening.

Bensebaini thwarted a potential equaliser 33 seconds after the restart. Amid a period of Freiburg pressure, Chukwuemeka scored the goal for 2-0 on his first start (52) before substitute Guirassy increased BVB's lead to 3-0 (68). Gittens rounded off the victory on the 78-minute mark, before Eggestein grabbed a goal back at the end to make it 4-1.<\/p>\nThe scenario:<\/b>   \nSeventh versus 10th. The Black & Yellows had won their six previous meetings with Sportclub; they did not have a longer such run against any other Bundesliga opponent.<\/p>\nPersonnel matters:  \n <\/b>BVB travelled without the suspended Schlotterbeck and Couto and minus the injured Sabitzer, but Guirassy and Nmecha were back in the squad. There were three changes to the starting line-up compared to the 3-1 victory against Mainz a week earlier: Bensebaini, Svensson and Chukwuemeka replaced Schlotterbeck, Couto and Özcan, who dropped to the bench, where he was joined by the returning Nmecha and Guirassy.<\/p>\n<img src=\"/content/dam/bvbweb/en/news/profis/2025/04/05/bl-spielbericht/81_Freiburg-Chukwuemeka.jpg\" data-assetref=\"81_Freiburg-Chukwuemeka-1743863104006\"><\/p>\nTactics:  <\/b> \nBensebaini moved over to the left of the back three in the Black & Yellows' 3-5-2 formation. Ryerson was positioned significantly further forward on the right flank than Svensson on the left. Brandt played a much deeper role than he has done recently in a centre-left position, while Chukwuemeka lined up between the two strikers (Beier, Adeyemi) and mostly operated from the left. Freiburg took to the field in a 4-2-2-2 system and pressed high in certain off-the-ball situations while also defending deep in others.<\/p>\nThe match & analysis: \n <\/b>Freiburg twice got into dangerous positions in the Dortmund penalty area in the first quarter of an hour, but Groß thwarted Grifo (8) and the unmarked Adamu then did not make proper contact with the ball (14), though a goal would have been disallowed for offside. BVB frequently had the ball but initially hardly threatened in the final third and created their most promising opportunity following a set-piece. Groß delivered a corner-kick towards Bensebaini, whose header was stopped on the line by the outstretched leg of a Freiburg player (12).<\/p>\n<img src=\"/content/dam/bvbweb/en/news/profis/2025/04/05/bl-spielbericht/81_Freiburg-Adeyemi.jpg\" data-assetref=\"81_Freiburg-Adeyemi-1743863128287\"><\/p>\nAs the match progressed, the Black & Yellows popped up in and around the Freiburg box increasingly often. Borussia initially did not get a shot away following Brandt's switch-ball over to Adeyemi on the left flank. But the clearance was underhit and landed back at the feet of Adeyemi, whose shot from 16 metres out was blocked (30). Ryerson dashed down the right flank four minutes later and delivered a cross, but the ball was not cleared properly by Lienhart. Groß fired goalbound from 16 metres out but Beier was standing in the path of the shot and deflected it to Adeyemi, who showed fast reactions and excellent technique as he beat Kübler and fired home at 110km/h from a centre-left position around eight metres from goal.<\/p>\nThe first hearts-in-mouths moment came directly after the interval. Grifo's cross went to Doan in the middle of the penalty box. Kobel threw himself at the Freiburg player and saved, before Bensebaini intervened on the goal-line. 33 seconds had been played. Freiburg had set their sights high for the second period and made that clear. But then Ginter misplaced a pass on the halfway line. Brandt intercepted the ball, Adeyemi passed the ball on to Beier and he in turn played it to Chukwuemeka. The Englishman ran at the Freiburg defence and unleashed a shot from approximately 20 metres out. The ball took a decisive deflection off Lienhart, leaving Müller in the Freiburg goal no chance of getting to the ball (52).<\/p>\n<img src=\"/content/dam/bvbweb/en/news/profis/2025/04/05/bl-spielbericht/81_Freiburg2.jpg\" data-assetref=\"81_Freiburg2-1743863153169\"><\/p>\nFreiburg kept up the pressure. The injured Bensebaini was replaced like-for-like by Özcan, while Guirassy came on for Beier in a period of the game in which the Black & Yellows had little control. Until the double substitution anyway. They then won the ball back level with the half-way line, and Chukwuemeka did brilliantly to get the better of three Freiburg players. He set Brandt in motion, who was clean through on the left flank and spotted the run of Guirassy, who was left with a simple tap into the net (68).<\/p>\nThe game was more than up by this point. Freiburg had had the rug pulled from under them. Dortmund continued to allow the opposition to have the ball \u2013 and then struck again: Groß fed Osterhage down the right flank and Ryerson left Makengo trailing in his wake before delivering a delicate cross for Gittens to head home for 4-0 (78). Eggestein grabbed a deserved consolation goal shortly before full-time.<\/p>\nOutlook:  <\/b> \nThe match in Freiburg was the first of three consecutive away games in the space of eight days. BVB will travel to FC Barcelona for their UEFA Champions League quarter-final first leg on Wednesday evening (kick-off at 21:00 CEST), before travelling away to FC Bayern Munich on Saturday (18:30 CEST).<\/p>\nBoris Rupert reporting from Freiburg<\/i><\/p>\n<img src=\"/content/dam/bvbweb/en/news/profis/2025/04/05/bl-spielbericht/81_Grafik.jpg\" data-assetref=\"81_Grafik-1743863084320\"><\/p>\n<h2>Teams & goals<\/h2>\nBundesliga Matchday 28 \n Saturday 5 April 2025, 15:30 CEST \n SC FREIBURG 1-4 (0-1) BORUSSIA DORTMUND<\/b><\/p>\nSportclub Freiburg:<\/b> Müller \u2013 Kübler, Ginter, Lienhart (Rosenfelder, 69), Makengo \u2013 Eggestein, Osterhage (Beste, 79) \u2013 Doan, Grifo (Höfler, 79) \u2013 Höler (Dinkci, 69), Adamu (Gregoritsch, 79) \nBor.
