On Saturday evening, RB Leipzig continued their impressive form as they defeated Borussia Dortmund 1-0 in the Bundesliga. The match was a closely contested affair with both teams creating chances throughout the game.
However, it was RB Leipzig who emerged victorious thanks to a goal from Brazilian midfielder Bruno Fernandes in the 54th minute. The former Manchester United player scored his first league goal for the club, and it was a well-taken effort that left Dortmund goalkeeper Marc-André ter Stegen helpless.
The win was a much-needed boost for RB Leipzig, who had struggled in recent weeks. They now sit second in the table behind Bayern Munich, but with just two points separating them, every win is crucial.
Dortmund were unable to capitalise on their early advantage and found themselves trailing at half-time. However, they came out strong in the second half and created several opportunities to equalize.
In the 76th minute, it looked like they would level things up when German international Emre Can scored an equalizer from outside the box. But the referee waved away the goal, claiming that Can had handled the ball before scoring.
Despite the setback, Dortmund will be disappointed with the result, especially after creating so many chances in the first half. They will need to bounce back quickly if they want to keep pace with the leaders in the standings.
Overall, it was another impressive performance from RB Leipzig, who showed why they are one of the best teams in Germany. With Bruno Fernandes continuing to impress in midfield, there is no doubt that they will continue to cause problems for opponents this season.
