Can't believe this Dortmund team. They drew with one of the two worst teams of the Bundesliga. Just because Dortmund lost to Chelsea in the UCL doesn't mean Dortmund have to play so badly. Maybe it's actually a lucky 10 run streak, because this is the real dortmund we know.
Now Dortmund are completely depending on Leverkusen's game against Bayern Munich and have no other chance but to win Der Klassiker.
I'm not sure Leverkusen can beat Bayern Munich at BayArena in their next game and if you say Dortmund depend on the outcome of that game, I don't think that's quite right because Dortmund also need to win against FC Cologne at home. Apart from that, Bayern Munich will also continue to take advantage of every match for full points in order to secure itself at the top of the Bundesliga standings.
It is very difficult to expect Bayern Munich to lose this match, because Leverkusen is also experiencing difficult problems this season. It's always like that, when they have a big chance to be at the top of the standings, they even slip, seeing things like this actually I'm tired. However, it seems that their ability can only overshadow Bayern Munich without being able to overtake them.
It could be that this is the true ability of a team like Dortmund so that Dortmund can only reach second place in the Bundesliga even though they still have the opportunity to overtake Bayern Munich, but it is starting to look difficult now for Dortmund to do it, because even Schalke can keep up with the game. Dortmund, even though Schalke is a weak team in the Bundesliga this season.
Losing match is not a common habit to Bayern Munich, Dortmund should not put hope on any team to defeat Bayern Munich for Bayern Munich to remain stagnant. Dortmund just need to be concerned about their performance to be stable in winning if they really want to win the league.
I think what you are saying is very appropriate because Dortmund only needs to make their performance more stable again if they still want to continue to compete for trophies this season by not thinking about expectations that are difficult to happen. Because in the Bundesliga there is no team that is stronger than Bayern Munich, so beating Bayern Munich is not an easy matter for other teams.
