Dortmund Beat Stuttgart 1-0 to Go Top of Bundesliga

Schick scored his fourth straight Bundesliga goal as Leverkusen controlled the match and Leipzig had an equalizer ruled out for offside.

  • On Saturday, Maximilian Beier scored a 70th-minute winner to secure a 1-0 victory for Borussia Dortmund against VfB Stuttgart, moving the club to the top of the Bundesliga table.
  • Beier entered the match motivated by his exclusion from Jurgen Klopp's expanded 44-man Germany squad announced Thursday, channeling frustration into the decisive strike.
  • After a scoreless first half, Dortmund manager Niko Kovac introduced Jobe Bellingham in the 62nd minute, who provided the low cross for Beier to tap in from close range.
  • Dortmund's perfect 12 points from four matches marks their first time atop the table in 1,212 days and their first season-opening run of four consecutive wins in a decade.
  • Dortmund maintains a two-point lead over Bayern Munich and Freiburg, while summer signing Konstantinos Karetsas returned from a cardiovascular issue to bolster squad depth.
