While Bayern Munich reassured themselves against Greuther Fürth (4-1) on behalf of the 23rd day of the Bundesliga, Borussia Dortmund received Borussia Mönchengladbach to maintain a six-point gap with the Rekormeister and consolidate their second place. For their part, the Foals wanted to get away from the play-off zone which is only four points away. This meeting quickly turned to the advantage of the locals.
Shortly before the half hour mark, Marco Reus found the fault for the Marsupials (26th) before Donyell Malen doubled the lead in stride (32nd). Sheltered by Marius Wolf’s goal in the second half (70th), Marco Rose’s team even scored a fourth goal via the young Youssoufa Moukoko (75th). Marco Reus completed the success of his team (82nd) and Emre Can even scored a penalty (90th +1). Borussia Dortmund win 6-0 and continue their hunt for Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga.
