""HSV did a lot of things right in the first half and defended very aggressively. We definitely played far too slowly and failed to create numerical advantages," Kovac said."
""I liked the way we played in the second half, and that's what I would have liked to see from the very first minute. And then Signal Iduna Park did the rest.""
""Despite the three penalties, we deserved to come away as winners and will hopefully continue to pick up the points we need after the international break.""
""That wasn't what we wanted [in the first half], and it wasn't the performance we aimed for, but we made the necessary adjustments at half-time.""
Borussia Dortmund overcame a 2-0 deficit against Hamburger SV to secure a comeback victory in the Bundesliga. After a lackluster first half, where they generated only one shot on target, Dortmund improved significantly in the second half. Ramy Bensebaini scored two penalties, contributing to the turnaround. Dortmund achieved an expected goals value of 6.2, the highest in Europe's top five leagues this season, and won three penalties in a single Bundesliga match for the first time. They remain second in the league, trailing Bayern Munich by nine points.
