Borussia Dortmund: Mats Hummels Suspension and Champions League Battle

2023-12-14 03:19:09

It was possibly the game-winning scene. What might Borussia Dortmund have achieved if Thomas Meunier’s tackle hadn’t gone wrong? If Mats Hummels hadn’t had to unpack the emergency brake?

All Borussia Dortmund fans asked themselves these questions following Saturday’s defeat. But nothing helped. The top game was ultimately lost 2:3. The next bitter disappointment in the Bundesliga. Three days later, Hummels’ sentence was determined.

Borussia Dortmund: Hummels suspended

The Black and Yellows had to make do without their defensive boss for around 75 minutes. He was the last man to bring Lois Openda to the ground. The decision was still controversial. First there were penalties for Leipzig and yellow for Hummels.

+++ According to Brunner-Hammer – teammates with a clear statement +++

After an intervention by the video referee, which once once more caused a dispute (read more regarding it here), then the surprising change: free kick, but red. Ultimately, perhaps even the worse penalty for Borussia Dortmund.

Penalty known – BVB takes a breather

On Tuesday, the DFB announced the penalty for the expulsion. For his momentous tackle, Hummels only has to pause one game! Lucky for BVB, who are currently not a bed of roses in terms of personnel, especially in defense.
