Borussia Dortmund only won 2-0 on Saturday against FC Augsburg – there were chances for many more goals. That’s why it was also a rarely dominant performance by BVB, as much of the press agrees. Here are the most interesting reactions to the BVB – FCA match.
The FAZ speaks of a “confident victory.” “Dortmund controlled the game, but at the same time made some sloppy mistakes.” FCA did not capitalize on Anton’s error, while Adeyemi clinically took his first chance. FCA remained harmless even after the break. BVB managed the game for a long time but increased their lead at a favorable moment. With the 2-0, BVB solidified their second place in the Bundesliga.
“Dortmund won comfortably,” according to Sportschau. The game “started sluggishly,” BVB had control but created no chances. Dortmund’s patience was quickly rewarded, though. With their first shot on goal, Adeyemi scored the opener. Afterwards, BVB “created chances by the minute,” hitting the woodwork twice, and the halftime lead was “well deserved.” In the second half, Augsburg remained “far too passive,” while BVB pushed for a third goal, which did not come.

The Augsburger Allgemeine saw BVB as “a size too big” for FC Augsburg. “It was an interesting duel, one with many chances,” to which the visitors also contributed, “as they occasionally looked dangerous going forward. But also because they often defended far too carelessly.” Despite some chances for FCA, Dortmund was “clearly superior.” Conclusion: The BVB win is “deserved. FCA got off lightly with just two goals conceded.”
Augsburg was “largely overwhelmed,” and especially goalkeeper Finn Dahmen prevented a heavier defeat, according to kicker. The FCA defense was shaky time and again, and BVB remained “overwhelmingly superior” after the break. The victory was “well deserved,” but “almost a bit too low.”
Instead of focusing on the course of the match, the Süddeutsche Zeitung dedicates many lines to the scorer of the 2-0. Luca Reggiani only made his Bundesliga debut on February 7, scored his first goal for BVB against FCA, having joined from Sassuolo Calcio at the age of 16. Now, the Italian could become a “serious option” for Borussia’s central defense.
