Events
Match Events
- 0' Three points are at stake. 1. FC Union Berlin host Borussia Dortmund — let the battle begin!
- 5' Andras Schafer has been relatively quiet despite scoring 5 goals in his last 421 appearances.
- 8' A stunning finish from Janik Haberer — that came from absolutely nowhere!
- 13' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Marco Reus suffering a number of foals already.
- 16' 1. FC Union Berlin player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
- 21' What a moment for Janik Haberer! That strike on 21 puts his side firmly in control.

- 29' Salih Ozcan picks up a Yellow card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.

- 70' A tactical swap from Borussia Dortmund — Thorgan Hazard on, Niklas Sule off on 70 minutes.
