List BVB: Meyer – Morey, Hummels, Süle, Bueno – Papdopoulos – Duranville, Pohlmann, Reus, Hazard – Besong
+++ HALFTIME +++
Break in Oberhausen! Not a really convincing performance by Borussia Dortmund in the first half. RWO shocked BVB early on, but BVB reacted well and equalized in the 14th minute through Marco Reus. After that almost only Oberhausen provides goal area scenes. Shortly before the break, RWO has a great opportunity to take the lead. From BVB’s point of view, the 1: 1 is happy. Were Oberhausen to lead, this would not be undeserved.
+++ 44th minute +++
Opportunity for RWO. A flat ball slips through to the five where Ruzgis puts his foot down. Meyer reacts well and prevents the Oberhausen leadership.
+++ 41st minute +++
Anything else going on here before the break? BVB have so far lacked ideas on the offensive.
+++ 36 minutes +++
RWO reports again in front of Alex Meyer’s box and again it’s Stoppelkamp. But the 36-year-old doesn’t get enough pressure behind the ball. Grateful for the BVB keeper.
+++ 34 minutes +++
Next good chance for Oberhausen. Stoppelkamp tries it from around 18 meters, shoots the ball with his left but around a meter to the right of the box.
+++ 32 minutes +++
The first half hour is now over. At BVB, Thorgan Hazard, Antonios Papadopoulos and the long-term injured Mateu Morey have been particularly positive.
+++ 28 minutes +++
BVB takes control of the game. However, RWO does not give up and keeps trying to set small pinpricks. RWO mainly tries to do this via the outside. After a good half hour, a few crosses came dangerously into the sixteen.
+++ 24th minute +++
After the turbulent initial phase, things are now a little quieter for the first time.
+++ 20 minutes +++
After a handball from RWO, Marco Reus finds himself in a good free-kick position. However, the veteran hits the ball well over the box.
+++ 18 minutes +++
RWO is unimpressed by BVB’s equalizer and continues to try to push forward. So far it is a very entertaining game for viewers. Dortmund coach Terzic shouldn’t be satisfied with his team’s first few minutes.
+++ 14th minute, TOR for BVB, 1: 1 by Reus +++
There’s the quick answer! Thorgan Hazard finds free-standing Marco Reus in the middle. The ex-captain pulls directly from the left and scores. Curious: RWO keeper Kratzsch is still on the ball, so the ball only sinks into the goal after a high trajectory.
+++ 13th minute +++
BVB has detached itself from the pressure phase of Oberhausen and is trying to bring calm back into the game. Especially in the build-up game, Borussia still make too many mistakes.
+++ 10 minutes +++
RWO stay tuned! Another cross from the right, in the middle Stoppelkamp comes dangerously to the ball and misses the 2:0.
+++ 6th minute, TOR for Rot-Weiss Oberhausen, 1:0 by Ezekwem +++
Oberhausen rewards itself directly. After three or four mini-chances, BVB keeper Alexander Meyer doesn’t look good after a header from Ezekwem and has to reach behind him for the first time. Not the best start for Dortmund.
+++ 5th minute +++
There is the first small chance. However, not from BVB. After a cross, Mats Hummels gets the ball just before RWO captain Kreyer and can clear the ball for a corner.
+++ 3 minutes +++
Dortmund dominates the early minutes, has a lot of possession and tries to play fast from the start. However, the fans are still waiting for their first real chance to score.
+++ 1st minute, kick-off +++
It starts in Oberhausen! In perfect football weather and in front of full stands, BVB kicks off the game. The referee of the match is Martin Ulankiewicz.
+++ Hummels BVB captain again +++
After Niklas Süle wore the captain’s armband in the first test match, Mats Hummels goes back on the field with the armband against RWO.
+++ This is how Rot-Weiß Oberhausen starts +++
The hosts go into the game with the following line-up: Kratzsch – Ezekwem, Klass, Fassnacht, Montag – Stoppelkamp, März, Ngyombo, Kreyer – Ruzgis, Kefkir
+++ The stadium is filling up +++
Around 45 minutes before the start of the game, the seats in the Stadion Niederrhein are slowly filling up. RWO is currently expecting around 8,000 viewers.
+++ BVB sovereign in the first test +++
BVB won the first friendly against Westfalia Rhynern 7-0. A mix of players from the first and second teams was used. Ex-captain Marco Reus (two), talent Julian Rijkhoff, Paul-Philipp Besong (two), Hendry Blank and Prince Aning provided the goals.
+++ Who is BVB missing in the second test match against Rot-Weiss Oberhausen? +++
Giovanni Reyna will definitely be missing. The American will probably miss a large part of the preparation for BVB. Due to a “leg injury”, the 20-year-old, who the reigning runner-up would reportedly let go if offered a suitable offer, is currently only training individually. It is still unclear when Reyna will return to team training.
The American international was often missing last season. Although Reyna made 30 appearances across all competitions, he was usually only substituted on. He was denied a mission for the full 90 minutes.
+++ Are the national players of BVB back on board? +++
No. The national players are back with the team. However, Nico Schlotterbeck and Co. are not yet in the squad for the game against RWO. BVB already announced this during yesterday’s public training session.
+++ Where is the game between Rot Weiß Oberhausen and BVB taking place?
The game will take place in the Stadion Niederrhein, the home ground of Rot-Weiss Oberhausen. The game kicks off at 6:00 p.m.
