Borussia Dortmund handed the initiative back to Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga title race as they slumped to a 1-1 draw against their Ruhr rivals Bochum, extending Die Schwarzgelben’s winless away run in all competitions to six matches.For table-topping Dortmund, their night couldn’t have got off to a much worse start, with Gregor Kobel picking the ball out of his net inside five minutes. Not known for his goalscoring exploits, Anthony Losilla hadn’t scored in the Bundesliga this season prior to tonight, not that you’d have known after he hit an absolute rasper into the top corner from all of 30 yards. Bochum find themselves battling at the wrong end of the table for a reason though, and their fragilities were exposed straight from kick-off as a raking Mats Hummels pass freed Donyell Malen who laid the ball on plate for Karim Adeyemi to level almost instantly.YOU CAN WATCH LOSILLA’S GOAL HERE.That equaliser spurred Dortmund into life and they were unlucky not to take the lead shortly before the half-hour mark, when Jude Bellingham’s initial effort was saved by Manuel Riemann before Adeyemi skewed the rebound wide. If the first half was entertaining, the second half was proving to be anything but, as the game descended into the type of scrap associated with matches at the business end of the season where both teams are still battling hard for points.YOU CAN WATCH ADEYEMI’S GOAL HERE.Dortmund felt incensed when Adeyemi was seemingly felled in the area under a challenge from Danilo Soares, but despite their protestations, Edin Terzić’s side were denied the spot-kick. As Dortmund continued to probe for a late winner, they were met by the irresistible force of Riemann, with the Bochum stopper producing two fine stops to deny Bellingham and Youssoufa Moukoko to secure his side a huge point in their battle to beat the drop. Meanwhile, Dortmund must now watch on in hope that Bayern slip up this weekend if they’re to end the round on top of the table.that‘s a pen for Dortmund, which was not given.
