Borussia Dortmund secured a resounding 6-0 victory over Wolfsburg
Borussia Dortmund secured a resounding 6-0 victory over Wolfsburg, thanks in large part to two goals from England's Jude Bellingham. This statement win keeps Dortmund's hopes of a first Bundesliga title in 11 years alive, as they remain just one point behind league leaders Bayern Munich with three games to go.
Dortmund wasted no time in attacking Wolfsburg, taking the lead after just 14 minutes through Karim Adeyemi's expertly-headed goal. Wolfsburg had a chance to equalize, but Patrick Wimmer's shot was saved by Dortmund keeper Gregor Kobel. Dortmund then doubled their lead with a tap-in from Sebastien Haller, set up by Adeyemi's pass.
After the break, Dortmund continued to dominate with a rampaging run from Bellingham leading to his first goal of the game. Adeyemi then added another goal a few minutes later, tapping the ball into the empty net. Although he missed a penalty that would have given him a hat-trick, Haller's earlier efforts proved crucial. Bellingham completed the rout a few minutes from time, slotting the ball in from close range.
Dortmund midfielder Emre Can praised Bellingham and Adeyemi for their impressive performances, stating that they both have the quality to score goals. Bellingham, who has been linked with a move to Real Madrid, now has 13 goals in all competitions this season.
Despite Dortmund's impressive win, their future remains uncertain as they try to secure the title. Bellingham's future, in particular, remains a hot topic, but Dortmund's sporting director, Sebastian Kehl, insists that no official offers have been made for a transfer.
With three games left to play, Dortmund will need to continue their impressive form to have any chance of catching Bayern Munich. Can said, "It's not over yet. We need to win all our games and see what happens, but the belief is definitely still there." The Bundesliga title race is still on a knife edge, and fans will be eagerly watching to see how it all unfolds.
