The story in brief
5-second readThe BVB left it late, yet again.
From the source
Borussia Dortmund beat Werder Bremen in the DFB-Pokal on Tuesday and reached the Round of 16 stage of the competition. Marcel Sabitzer was the unlikely hero of the side as the Austrian scored a stunning free-kick in the 93rd minute to seal a 3-2 win.
The BVB led 2-0 within the opening 20 minutes through Serhou Guirassy and Carney Chukwuemeka but Niclas Fullkrug came off the bench to score a second-half double and bring the River Islanders level.
Dortmund were handed a lifeline in the dying seconds of the match when Felix Nmecha won a free-kick from the edge of the box which Sabitzer curled in to send them through.
