Dortmund 6-0 Wolfsburg: Borussia Dortmund has increased the pressure on leader Bayern Munich again with a 6-0 victory over VfL Wolfsburg. There are still three games to play in the Bundesliga.
Borussia Dortmund has an afternoon to lick your fingers
Bayern is in pole position with three games to go to win the 32nd national title, although the difference with Dortmund is only one point and the title fight therefore remains exciting.
The potential banana peel was skillfully avoided, because Dortmund didn’t waste any time against Wolfsburg on Sunday. A long ball from Emre Can over fifty yards found the up-and-coming Julian Ryerson, who headed in for Karim Adeyemi, who scored his fifth goal of the season and then served the scoring Sébastien Haller. Before the break it was Donyell Malen’s turn and after 37 minutes it was already 3-0 for the home team.
Second half
For Wolfsburg, which is still competing for Europa League football, it ended up being a disaster afternoon. The much-discussed Jude Bellingham, according to Spanish media, well on his way to Real Madrid, shot 4-0 from about 25 meters, although he received some help from Koen Casteels. The goalkeeper unfortunately saw the ball land over the line. Adeyemi, the man of the match, then signed for 5-0 on a pass from Haller.
Adeyemi could have given his match some extra shine by shooting in the 6-0 from eleven meters, but that was too much to ask. Bellingham did just before time.
