December-phobic Dortmund face their longstanding curse

Everyone loves the holiday season except for Grinch and one football club – Borussia Dortmund. And it has nothing to do with winter, snow, or Santa Claus’ uncertain existence – it’s all about the results. And the results show the following: Dortmund are winless in their previous ten matches played in December in all competitions!Dortmund has not won any of its last ten competitive matches in December (six draws, four losses). Some stat. pic.twitter.com/qstypsoc3C— ari (@aritrabvb1909) December 16, 2024 Borussia’s last December triumph came midway through the month three years ago when they brushed aside Greuter Furth 3-0 behind Erling Haaland’s brace. To be accurate, since then, Dortmund played ten matches during the last month of the year – four at home and six as visitors – and noted six draws and four defeats.More precisely, they played Bundesliga clashes seven times, twice faced Champions League rivals, and once were knocked out of the German Cup by Stuttgart. Interestingly, each of the six aforementioned draws ended in the same result – 1-1!Schick counts to four in Lever’s demolishing winAs for the current year, Nuri Sahin’s team played three matches against Monchengladbach (1-1) and Hoffenheim (1-1) in the Bundesliga and against Barcelona (3-2) in the Champions League. Luckily for them, the duel against Wolfsburg (19.30) will be their last in December, so after today, they can relax at Signal Iduna Park, at least until next year and – who knows – perhaps another round of suffering.BUNDESLIGA – MATCHDAY 15FridayBayern Munich – RB Leipzig 5-1 (3-1)/Musiala 1, Laimer 25, Kimmich 36, Sane 75, Davies 78 – Sesko 2/SaturdayEintr.Frankfurt – Mainz 1-3 (0-2)/Kristensen 75 – Kaua Santos 15 og, Nebel 27, 58/Hoffenheim – M’ gladbach 1-2 (0-1)/Kramaric 58 pen – Sander 23, Plea 61/Holstein Kiel – Augsburg 5-1 (4-1)/Rosenboom 12, Harres 32, 35, Machino 39, 90+1 – Claude-Maurice 5/Stuttgart – St.Pauli 0-1 (0-1)/Eggestein 21/Werder – Union Berlin 4-1 (3-1)/Grull 13, 17, Weiser 45, Stage 88 – Schafer 23/Leverkusen – Freiburg 5-1 (1-0)/Schick 45+1, 67, 74, 77, Wirtz 51 – Grifo 55/Sunday 17:30: (2.40) Bochum (3.50) Heidenheim (3.10)19:30: (3.15) Wolfsburg (3.75) Dortmund (2.25)***odds are subject to change***
