Borussia Dortmund held to goalless draw by Union Berlin, remain Bundesliga leaders

Borussia Dortmund played to a 0-0 draw against Union Berlin on Saturday, a result that keeps them provisionally at the top of the Bundesliga with 14 points. Channel News Asia reports that the club has failed to win any of its last three matches across all competitions following a 1-0 Champions League loss to Bodo/Glimt on Wednesday. While the team lacked spark in the first half, they increased their level after the break.

During the match, striker Konstantinos Karetsas suffered an ankle injury just eight minutes after coming on as a substitute in the 62nd minute. According to Channel News Asia, this was a comeback appearance for Karetsas, who had collapsed in September due to what the club described as circulatory problems.

Ajel English noted that Werder Bremen and Paderborn also shared the spoils in their respective matches. In the Bundesliga standings, Freiburg sits in second place with 13 points, while Bayern Munich is in third with 11 points.
