"The start of the Rückrunde took place on Friday as Borussia Dortmund, who is sitting in second place behind league leader Bayern Munich, traveled to seventh place Eintracht Frankfurt. Already trailing Bayern Munich by nine points, Borussia Dortmund needed a win - there was no other choice. While Eintracht Frankfurt is no pushover, it has not been a powerhouse this season and it was a good opportunity for BVB to get three points and at least put a little pressure on Bayern Munich...until it wasn't."
"Borussia Dortmund led 1-0 and 2-1, but found itself trailing 3-2 in added time before Carney Chukwuemeka's late goal knotted the game at 3-3. It was a lost opportunity for the Black and Yellows. Right now, it just feels like no one can be consistent enough to seriously challenge Bayern Munich, which led us to think...after so many key personnel losses throughout the league, is this the weakest the Bundesliga has been in the last decade?"
The start of the Rückrunde saw Borussia Dortmund, second behind Bayern Munich, travel to seventh-place Eintracht Frankfurt. Dortmund trailed Bayern by nine points and needed a win; Eintracht had not been a powerhouse, making the match a clear chance to close the gap. Dortmund led 1-0 and 2-1 but fell behind 3-2 in added time before Carney Chukwuemeka scored a late goal to level the game at 3-3. The draw was a lost opportunity for Dortmund and reinforced a sense that no club has been consistent enough to seriously challenge Bayern this season. Speculation has emerged that the Bundesliga may be at its weakest in a decade after many key personnel losses.
