500 Fans at Sunday's Open Practice

The day after their successful Bundesliga home game against Eintracht Frankfurt (1–0), the Borussia Dortmund first team held an open training session on Sunday. Around 500 BVB fans watched the nearly one-hour session at noon. Beforehand, the BVB pros in attendance fulfilled visitors’ requests for autographs and selfies.

Not even 15 hours had passed since the final whistle on Saturday evening when the Black and Yellows were already back at the BVB training facility in Dortmund-Brackel. After the starting lineup players from the 1-0 home win against Eintracht Frankfurt had patiently fulfilled the many autograph and photo requests from the fans who had traveled to see them, this part of the team left the training field and completed their recovery session in the indoor training area.

For the rest of the BVB players – including Jobe Bellingham, Maximilian Beier, Ethan Nwaneri, and others who came on as substitutes on Saturday – training continued on the field with a practice session to make up for the missed match. During the roughly 60-minute session, various athletic drills were on the agenda under the watchful eyes of interested BVB fans. This was followed by passing drills and small-sided games, before the backup goalkeepers were once again put to the test as their teammates took shots on goal.

On Monday, the final training session ahead of the upcoming competitive match is already on the schedule. On Tuesday evening, Borussia Dortmund will host Bundesliga rival Werder Bremen for the second round of this year’s DFB Cup at SIGNAL IDUNA PARK (Oct. 27, 8:45 p.m., live on Sky and ZDF, as well as on the BVB app).

Against a well-organized Essen defense, the Black and Yellows created further attacking opportunities\u2014but were initially unable to convert any of them. As early as the 26th minute, Markus Högner was forced to make a substitution: Sara Ito, who had been struck by an opponent\u2019s cleat during a tackle, left the field with a laceration above her right eye; Noreen Günnewig came on in her place. Even before this substitution, the visitors from Essen created a dangerous double chance during a brief numerical advantage.<\/p>\nStriker Ramona Maier kicked off the final quarter-hour of the first half with a long-range shot on the opponent\u2019s goal, which goalkeeper Pia Lucassen was able to safely stop. Since neither Jacqueline Meißner (34th minute) nor Ramona Maier (35th minute) could find the back of the net afterward, it was once again Alex Popp who put the team ahead shortly thereafter: After a precise cross from Annika Enderle, Dortmund\u2019s captain simply had to put her foot out. Thanks in part to several stoppages in play, the 1-0 lead held until the halftime whistle.<\/p>\n<img data-assetref=\"Frauen-SGS-Essen-1792947096197\" src=\"/content/dam/bvbweb/en/news/2026/10/25/spielbericht-frauen/Frauen-SGS-Essen.jpg\"><\/p>\nAt the start of the second half, Markus Högner brought on Rita Schumacher for the booked Jacqueline Meißner. However, it was the SGS that created the first dangerous attacking opportunities: Leonie Kreuz missed two chances to equalize in the 58th minute\u2014Laura van der Laan and the post each prevented a goal. Shortly afterward, on the other end of the field, Ramona Maier squandered a great chance following impressive build-up play by Ricarda Walkling and Rita Schumacher.<\/p>\nIn the final 15 minutes, the BVB Women picked up the pace once again, but were mostly thwarted by the visitors\u2019 defense, which remained solid. A header by substitute Ronja Leubner sailed over the crossbar following a Schumacher cross (76th minute). Right up into stoppage time, the 3,083 fans at Rote Erde Stadium watched a match whose suspense stemmed primarily from the home team\u2019s razor-thin lead. Since the Dortmund women\u2019s shots lacked the necessary punch right up until the end, the score remained a narrow 1-0 victory over the 13th-place team in the Regionalliga West.<\/p>\nLooking \nAhead <\/b>: <\/b>While the Women\u2019s Regionalliga West takes a break this coming weekend, Markus Högner\u2019s team will face 1.

It\u2019s great to know that two players who came off the bench decided the game for us. Of course, it\u2019s also good for our confidence when we not only feel like we were the better team but also walk away with three points.\u201d<\/p>\nNiko Kovac<\/b> (during the press conference): \u201cAfter such a demanding stretch of days, we had to dig deep in this match against a very good Eintracht team. In the second half, we were able to increase the pressure, prevented opposition chances, and walked off the field deserved winners. Coming off those tough away games, What I care about most is that we beat a quality side. That's our takeaway, and we hope we can do it again in a few days.\u201d<\/p>\nMaxi Beier<\/b> (on Sky): \u201cI practice those shots a lot in training.

At the same time, it feels good that we created so many chances. That just goes to show the nature of football these days: You have so many games, and you need a strong roster. In the end, we provided proof of that by having two players come on and make the difference.\u201d<\/p>\n<img data-assetref=\"50-Int-Nmecha-1792871061964\" src=\"/content/dam/bvbweb/en/news/2026/10/24/bl-reaktionen/50-Int-Nmecha.jpg\"><\/p>\nNico Schlotterbeck<\/b> (on Sky): \u201cIt was a ton of fun. We allowed a few chances in the first half, and then none whatsoever in the second half. We\u2019ve now kept five clean sheets in seven games. If we had held on for two more minutes against Bremen, we'd be talking about six out of seven. That\u2019s really good. The four of us in the back work really well together. We dominated the second half and earned the win through compact defending. Maxi put his quality on display. That shot into the far corner is his specialty. Noah [Atubolu] had been making quality saves up to that point, but he couldn\u2019t stop that one. We're not perfect yet, but we're making progress as a team. Next week, we\u2019re off to take on Bayern. We want to play a strong game there. Before that, we\u2019re up against Bremen. They\u2019re in good form. I expect a high-intensity affair. The shortest path to silverware is the domestic cup."<\/p>\nGregor Kobel<\/b> (in the mixed zone): \u201cWe were the more proactive team, even though Frankfurt played pretty well in the first half. We created a lot of good moments. We controlled the game and kept generating chances. We had the better chances. It was a well-deserved win.\u201d \nRecorded by Boris Rupert<\/i><\/p>\n","title":"Text","multiValue":false,"value":"Lars Ricken <\/b>(in the mixed zone): <\/b>\u201cThis win wasn\u2019t a given. We\u2019ve been on the road a lot since the end of August. We kept turning up the pressure and eventually had Eintracht where we wanted them. It\u2019s great to know that two players who came off the bench decided the game for us. Of course, it\u2019s also good for our confidence when we not only feel like we were the better team but also walk away with three points.\u201d<\/p>\nNiko Kovac<\/b> (during the press conference): \u201cAfter such a demanding stretch of days, we had to dig deep in this match against a very good Eintracht team. In the second half, we were able to increase the pressure, prevented opposition chances, and walked off the field deserved winners. Coming off those tough away games, What I care about most is that we beat a quality side. That's our takeaway, and we hope we can do it again in a few days.\u201d<\/p>\nMaxi Beier<\/b> (on Sky): \u201cI practice those shots a lot in training. Of course, I\u2019m happy that it went in like that. Believing in [our ability to score late] is the most important thing. If you don\u2019t believe in it, you've already failed. It\u2019s been a demanding few weeks so far, but we all love the game and being out on the field.\u201d<\/p>\n<img data-assetref=\"50-Int-Beier-1792871044795\" src=\"/content/dam/bvbweb/en/news/2026/10/24/bl-reaktionen/50-Int-Beier.jpg\"><\/p>\nFelix Nmecha<\/b> (in the mixed zone): \u201cWe had the chances, but in the end that final touch wasn\u2019t quite there.
