Dortmund slip up with goalless draw at Union, Karetsas injured
Dortmund stayed provisionally top of the Bundesliga despite a third straight match without a win, while substitute Konstantinos Karetsas left with an ankle injury.
Borussia Dortmund drew at Union Berlin on Saturday, earning a goalless result that moved them provisionally top of the Bundesliga table despite lacking spark in the first half.
Following a Champions League defeat at Bodo/Glimt on Wednesday, the Ruhr valley club has now failed to win any of their last three matches across all competitions.
Striker Konstantinos Karetsas suffered an ankle injury eight minutes after entering in the 62nd minute, cutting short his return from a September collapse the club said were 'circulatory problems'.
The point lifted the Ruhr club to the top of the Bundesliga table, marking their second consecutive league draw that stopped their downward momentum.
Freiburg, on 13 points, faces Bayer Leverkusen on Sunday, while Champions Bayern Munich, third on 11, takes on Leipzig later on Saturday.
The BVB is concerned about Konstantinos Karetsas after the weak remis at Union Berlin. The words of the teammates give an idea of evil. A failure would also be bitter because Dortmund has to cope with the first small crisis.
