Kovac and Schlotterbeck left frustrated after Dortmund let lead slip - Soccer News
"Bayern Munich's 2-2 draw away to Union Berlin gave Dortmund the opportunity to bridge the gap at the top to five points, and they looked set for a third successive league win. Carney Chukwuemeka gave them the lead in the second half with a volley, continuing Dortmund's scoring streak in the league as they have now netted in all 10 Bundesliga outings this season."
"I think we had everything under control until scoring the opening goal," Schlotterbeck told Sky Germany. "We hardly allowed anything until that. Then we lost control and became too sloppy. We let HSV take control. "Then what often happens when you become too passive, happened. When 15 crosses come in, one of them is bound to go in. "We need to play a little more football, and we didn't manage to do that in the end."
Borussia Dortmund were held to a 1-1 draw by Hamburg after Ransford-Yeboah Konigsdorffer scored in the seventh minute of injury time. Carney Chukwuemeka opened the scoring with a second-half volley, extending Dortmund's run of scoring in all 10 Bundesliga matches this season. Coach Niko Kovac criticised too many simple turnovers and said a second goal was required to relax. Defender Nico Schlotterbeck said the team lost control and became too sloppy, allowing Hamburg to dominate and send numerous crosses into the box. Dortmund registered 17 attempts but only one shot on target and sit third, one point above Bayer Leverkusen.
