Wolfsburg (dpa) – Bayern can come! Borussia Dortmund are ready for the league summit next Saturday. "It's a very cool week for us," said Dortmund midfielder Thomas Delaney after the tedious but deserved victory of the 1-0 (1-0) victory at VfL Wolfsburg on Saturday.
First Atlético Madrid Tuesday in the Champions League, then Munich in the league. "We are looking forward to playing these games, and the rest of the week is a break, so we can do it all over again in both games."
For the first time since the 30th round of the 2011/12 season, BVB is again facing a direct duel with Bayern ahead of the record champions – then the Blacks and Yellows were at the end of the German champions. On Saturday, only traveling fans sang, but players and officials know they have a good chance of escaping Bayern with a win on Saturday. Seven points in this case would equate to Dortmund's advantage over rivals from the south.
"Bayern's result today will certainly contribute to the fact that they are still a little more under pressure," said Dortmund sports director Sebastian Kehl, who scored Bayern's goal against Freiburg as all Borussia with a mixture of wonder and satisfaction. Had taken note.
While the Munichers remain a mystery this season and their own claims are lagging behind, the Dortmund team impresses with its impressive consistency and coldness. In Wolfsburg, the BVB achieved an average performance to remain undefeated in the 15th competitive match of the season. Before Lucien Favre started, the BVB coach was so successful.
The Borussia coach was pleased with the statistics but he remained faithful even after setting this record. "There is still much to be done, we are focusing on the next match – and that's Atletico Madrid," said Switzerland.
In fact, everyone in the Dortmund camp did their best not to think too much about the Bavarians. "As far as I know, we only play in the Champions League of Atletico," said General Manager Hans-Joachim Watzke. "And there is a lot to come for us." After the impressive 4-0 of BVB two weeks ago, the Spaniards will be hot on the other hand. "There is a lot of work to be done," Kehl said.
But of course, they are already feverish in Dortmund against Bayern, especially for the BVB, a defeat at Atlético would not mean a big decline in the Champions League. After years of overwhelming dominance in Munich, they perceive black and yellow as an opportunity to overthrow the unloved set of stars of the throne Isar. Although the Munichers are disappointed by their sedentary football week after week, the BVB is excited by the tempo.
And even if the power is not at the rendezvous of Saturday in Wolfsburg, Borussia is not in danger. "I can go on like this," said Marco Reus, who scored his sixth goal of the season in the 27th minute. "We have a very good feeling," Delaney said. How seven points ahead of Bayern? "That would be cool," said the Dane.
