Dortmund produce stunning late show as they grab win over Stuttgart in Bundesliga

[p]Hosting the side immediately above them in the Bundesliga table, Die Schwaben showed plenty of early intent. [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/fuhrich-chris/bczcNJFB/"]Chris Fuhrich[/a], fresh from his first appearance for Germany since November 2024, looked particularly bright despite his ambitious effort from range being routinely saved by [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/kobel-gregor/xlBg2ttC/"]Gregor Kobel[/a].[/p][p]Sebastian Hoenes’s side continued to apply pressure, with [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/sabitzer-marcel/8UkK3Y37/"]Marcel Sabitzer[/a] being forced to throw himself in front of a Führich shot after Kobel had denied [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/stiller-angelo/0hF2GIXS/"]Angelo Stiller[/a].[/p][p][a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/vfb-stuttgart/nJQmYp1B/"]Stuttgart[/a] showed no signs of slowing down, but an opener continued to evade them, as [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/undav-deniz/tUHAdtMH/"]Deniz Undav[/a] fired over following a long throw from [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/hendriks-ramon/x2tZQYZD/"]Ramon Hendriks[/a], and [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/guirassy-serhou/YXRCmup6/"]Serhou Guirassy[/a] got his head in the way of a venomous Führich strike.[/p][p]Fuhrich then offered the visitors a reprieve after Undav had won a foul from [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/schlotterbeck-nico/hKLN8mA7/"]Nico Schlotterbeck[/a] near the edge of the box, as his free-kick floated harmlessly over Kobel’s crossbar.[/p][p]His more threatening half-volley fizzed over shortly before [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/chukwuemeka-carney/tpQg2gso/"]Carney Chukwuemeka[/a] sent a rare [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/dortmund/nP1i5US1/"]Dortmund[/a] attempt convincingly wide ahead of the break.[/p][image alt="Match stats" id="2e98322e-8fd7-424a-9636-8debbda86434" credit-line="Opta by StatsPerform" guid="9793996d-2298-4103-85c1-182db105edad" original-width="1080" original-height="1080" /][p]The second half’s early stages looked more encouraging for Niko Kovac, although [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/assignon-lorenz/2T5az5TR/"]Lorenz Assignon[/a] still brought a save out of Kobel after a well-worked corner from the hosts.[/p][p][a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/adeyemi-karim/GvIzwgo8/"]Karim Adeyemi[/a] and [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/silva-fabio/YaEnqMoU/"]Fabio Silva[/a] were introduced for Dortmund shortly after the hour mark, and it wasn’t long until [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/leweling-jamie/UTtpcjym/"]Jamie Leweling[/a] was brought on as both teams looked for an edge with the match now being tightly contested.[/p][p]There was a slight scare for [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/bensebaini-ramy/jag6GVQG/"]Ramy Bensebaini[/a] before his header back to Kobel was gathered, but both teams struggled to create problems for the opposing goalkeeper despite more attacking substitutions being made.[/p][p]Stiller and Leweling curled a late shot apiece off-target, with the highest-scoring fixture in Bundesliga looking destined to end goalless.[/p][p][b]Adeyemi changed that in the 94th minute, though, as he did brilliantly to touch down [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/chabot-julian/f1kf4eiH/"]Jeff Chabot[/a]’s attempted clearance and provided a clinical finish. [/b][/p][p][b]Mere moments later, [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/brandt-julian/hW5Goyrc/"]Julian Brandt[/a] rounded off a blistering counter by firing into the roof of [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/nubel-alexander/Igk6vzlT/"]Alexander Nubel[/a]’s net to secure Die Schwarzgelben’s fourth consecutive win, which takes them 11 points ahead of Stuttgart and nine behind league leaders [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/bayern-munich/nVp0wiqd/"]Bayern Munich[/a].
