Borussia left points and title hopes in Augsburg

Bayern Munich stumbled a couple of times this season, the Bavarians have an unusually large number of defeats in the first 24 rounds of Bundesliga, but there is nobody out there who could use those ’hiccups’ and press Bayern for the first spot. This year, it should have been Borussia Dortmund, but the Millionaires are just not up to the task. With an expected win against relegation threatened Augsburg, Dortmund would slash the difference with Bayern to an acceptable 6 points, but that didn’t happen tonight. On the contrary, Borussia stumbled and played only 1-1, which means that the Bundesliga title race (if there was ever a race) is all but over.It’s more than just a game. pic.twitter.com/JKLkGtX5Y0— FC Augsburg (@FCA_World) February 27, 2022 Apart from still not recovered Haaland, captain Marco Reus was also missing, but Torgen Hazard scored a great goal in the 35th minute, and everybody expected this was just the beginning of another thrashing, just like the one with Borussia Monchengladbach a week ago. But it didn’t happen. Usually, Dortmund scores a lot of goals, but also concedes. Today they received only one, but failed to score the second goal. Augsburg survived several dangerous situations and then managed to equalize in the finish. Once again, the confused defense of Borussia came to the fore. Arne Meyer caught the ball badly, but luckily for the hosts, it turned out to be an assist, and Bazee was at the right place – 1:1. It should be said that coach Rose had trouble with his back four as Manuel Akanji, Dan-Axel Zagadou and Thomas Meunier were all unavailable, but even with those players on the field, Borussia conceded a lot of stupid goals against weaker teams. This poor draw against poor team is just end of a terrible week in which Dortmund was eliminated from Europa League and tonight lost their battle for the Bundesliga title.BUNDESLIGA – ROUND 24FridayHoffenheim – Stuttgart 2-1 (0-0)/Baumgartner 85, 90 – Endo 58/SaturdayM’gladbach – Wolfsburg 2-2 (1-2)/Thuram 42, Embolo 82 – Wind 6, Bornauw 33/Greuther Furth – Koln 1-1 (0-0)/Griesbeck 69 – Kainz 52/Union Berlin – Mainz 3-1 (1-0)/Haraguchi 7, Becker 56, Awoniyi 75 – Burgzorg 90/Freiburg – Hertha 3-0 (1-0)/Grifo 12 pen, Schade 83, Holer 86/Leverkusen – Bielefeld 3-0 (1-0)/Alario 29, Diaby 57, 81/Eintr.
