Jacob Bruun Larsen’s late goal sealed a 1-1 Bundesliga game between Borussia Dortmund and Hoffenheim. The former Dortmund player scored in stoppage time to cancel out Giovanni Reyna’s earlier goal. Dortmund was deprived of all three points due to this outcome at Signal Iduna Park. Hoffenheim, who had not won in five matches, got off to a strong start, but Dortmund quickly took control.
Despite their challenges, Hoffenheim showed resilience. They had gone goalless for 405 minutes in the Bundesliga and had lost six away games in all competitions. However, Bruun Larsen broke the drought with a crucial equalizer. Meanwhile, Reyna’s goal was his first Bundesliga score since May 2023.
Dortmund had hoped to move up to fifth place in the league rankings with a victory. Their plans seemed on track as Reyna scored on a defensive error just 31 seconds into the second half. He capitalized on a weak clearance and blasted the ball home, giving Dortmund an early lead after the interval.
When Bruun Larsen scored off Haris Tabakovic’s low cross in the 91st minute, the match took a dramatic turn. His goal put Hoffenheim on a three-game draw streak and earned them a point. Dortmund was frustrated by this last-minute turn of events as they were unable to win consecutive home games.
Dortmund lost their lead for the second time in a row at home. Despite taking control following Hoffenheim’s strong start, they could not retain their lead until the final whistle. The match highlighted the difficulties facing both teams as their Bundesliga campaigns continue.
