Match facts: BVB clinical and committed in Leverkusen | OneFootball

Golden goals: Aaron Anselmino and Karim Adeyemi each scored with their only shot of the game.

Using your head: Borussia scored two headers – matching their tally from the first eleven matches.

Good omen: When Karim Adeyemi has scored, BVB have never lost in the Bundesliga (15 wins, two draws). It was his third competitive goal in a row, and his 20th Bundesliga goal. It was also the second time he has scored with his head (the first came against Wolfsburg back in May 2023).

Hard to beat: Borussia Dortmund celebrated their seventh win of the season and have lost only one of their twelve games in the Bundesliga this season. Only league leaders Bayern Munich are yet to taste defeat.

Overtake: By winning, the BVB passed Leverkusen in the table again and are now third, one point behind second-placed Leipzig.

Bullseye: Aaron Anselmino scored with his first shot in the Bundesliga.

Set piece: For the first time in this Bundesliga season, BVB scored following a free-kick.

Commitment: Daniel Svensson ran 12.3 kilometres. All the outfield players who were on the pitch from start to finish notched up more than ten kilometres.

Back in action: Julien Duranville was in the squad for the first time this season in the Bundesliga (he had also been in the UEFA Champions League squad on Tuesday).
