The 2-2 draw between Dortmund and Schalke was indeed very surprising and moreover Dortmund was in his best condition, most fans hoped that Dortmund could lead the standings, but if you look at the match statistics Dortmund controlled the match and carried the flow of the match with dominance.
It really made me also surprised by this result, it seems that Dortmund's defense at that time had a gap that Schalke took advantage of.
Schalke also played quite well here, and made a strategy that was difficult for Dortmund to penetrate so that they could defend and attack even though the opportunity to do so was with a small ratio.
Schalke suddenly became stronger when playing at home.
Dortmund slipped at key moments as usual. This was a must-win match for Dortmund and they wasted an important point. The only way the title race can continue is if Dortmund win against Koln and then a miracle happens and they win against Bayern Munich at the Allianz arena later.
Schalke almost won. Despite being at the bottom of the table, Schalke is playing some crazy football to stay in the Bundesliga. I hope Schalke stays and repeats its success as a top club again.
To be honest, I wouldn't be surprised if in the end Dortmund only got one point in this match. very reasonable, in football anything can happen. Dortmund actually controlled the game with 66% ball possession, Dortmund also had many opportunities. recorded, they had 20 total shots, 8 on target, 4 shots off the mark and 8 shots blocked. it's a shame, only two opportunities that they can maximize to be converted into goals. with this result, adding to the record of unsatisfactory results after Dortmund slipped in the Champions League. also, providing an opportunity for Bayern to widen the gap between them.
Meanwhile, Bayern successfully overthrew Augsburg with a score of 5-3. so for now, Bayern are two points ahead of Dortmund. next, Edin Terzic must maximize his team to win the next match. against Koln later, it becomes a mandatory result for Dortmund to win. after that, Dortmund can fight it out when carrying out the match against Bayern Munich.
So, Dortmund still has a chance because the Bundesliga still has 10 remaining matches until the end of the season.
