"We weren't as focused as I would have liked for the entire 90 minutes. We had a 3-1 lead and got the most out of our quality players as far as finishing is concerned,"
"But we didn't embrace the fight like we should have here in St. Pauli. That's why we have to be satisfied with this point at the end of the day. For me, it was a clear penalty."
"But it wasn't just him. We then conceded another goal from 18 metres when we had enough players in front of us to throw ourselves at it, and the ball then gets past us."
"But today was a day where we didn't deserve more than one point."
Serhou Guirassy gave Dortmund a 34th-minute lead and missed a penalty five minutes later. Andreas Hountondji levelled for St. Pauli in the 50th minute before Waldemar Anton and Julian Brandt put Dortmund 3-1 ahead. Filippo Mane received a straight red in the 85th minute for a last-man foul; Danel Sinani scored the resulting penalty. Eric Smith struck a minute from time to complete a 3-3 comeback. Dortmund recorded an xG of 1.42 from eight shots while St. Pauli had 1.27 from 11. Dortmund failed to start a Bundesliga season with a win for the first time in 10 years.
