From the source
With Germany boss Jürgen Klopp in attendance, the top teams in the Bundesliga battled it out to a 2-2 draw. Bayern Munich blew the lead twice as Dortmund’s home crowd rallied their team to play with higher energy and intensity for most of the match.
Konrad Laimer and Dayot Upamecano were the unlikely scoring heroes for Bayern, while Serhou Guirassy and Fábio Silva saved Dortmund. By the halftime whistle, Ismael Saibari was helped off the pitch with a squashed ankle, Serge Gnabry limped off with a non-contact muscle injury, and Jonas Urbig’s face was bleeding Bayern red (literally!).
To make matters worse, Michael Olise asked to be substituted late in the second half. Unsurprisingly, Niko Kovač’s tactics featured a brutish mindset on defense paired with a flopping approach on offense.
