Facts: Fabio Silva with his fourth assist

A last-minute penalty gave Borussia Dortmund a victory that was certainly not undeserved given the xG of 3.8 to 0.9, even though FC St. Pauli put up a fight and even led in terms of shots (11-9). Here are the match facts.

100% from 11: Emre Can has converted each of his 11 penalties in the Bundesliga.

Asset: Karim Adeyemi scored Borussia's first goal of the second half to make it 2-0 and, along with his assist for the first goal, collected two scorer points in a Bundesliga match for the first time this season. It was his first assist in the Bundesliga since Matchday 3.

A force at home: Borussia Dortmund have picked up 23 out of a possible 27 points at home in the Bundesliga this season.

Assist provider: Fabio Silva is still without a Bundesliga goal for BVB, but has already provided his fourth assist of the season – only Julian Ryerson (five) has provided more.

Accurate: It was Julian Brandt's fifth goal of the season, equalling his tally for the entire previous season.
