Only the Germans slip up: wins for Dortmund’s other internationals | OneFootball

The performance of the German national team was historically poor, as they had to accept their first away defeat in a World Cup qualifying match with a 0:2 loss in Slovakia. The performance of the Germans is also considered historically bad, with only Karim Adeyemi from Borussia Dortmund being substituted in late. The other national players from BVB, whose national teams played yesterday, fared better.

In the 66th minute, Adeyemi replaced Serge Gnabry in Bratislava but was just as pale as the striker from FC Bayern Munich. The performance of Julian Nagelsmann's team was frightening in all respects. They neither set accents in the offense nor presented a stable defense. This was accompanied by a lack of attitude, at least that's how it sounded from Nagelsmann himself after the game. This puts direct qualification for the World Cup at risk, although there are also other possibilities if they do not finish first in their group. Waldemar Anton and Pascal Groß cannot be blamed for this game as they sat on the bench for 90 minutes.

The evening went quite differently for Julian Ryerson, who not only played the full match duration but also achieved a 1:0 victory in his test with Norway against neighboring Finland.

Anton and Groß only spectators in Slovakia's humiliation

Also victorious and on the field for the full length was Ramy Bensebaini. With Algeria, the BVB player won 3:1 against Botswana, where unlike in Norway, points were also at stake for the qualification for the 2026 World Cup in the USA, Canada, and Mexico.

Turkey also scored a win, with a 3:2 victory in Georgia. Salih Özcan, who was not nominated by BVB for the Champions League for this match, was only a spectator for 90 minutes, but he must have been pleased with his association's success.

In total, thirteen players from BVB are currently on international duty. The next matches with potential participation of these Dortmund players will follow today.
