BVB World Street Series comes to New York

Following stops in Los Angeles and Tokyo, Borussia Dortmund is bringing its World Street Soccer Series to the heart of New York. Around 350 children and young people aged between 8 and 18 from New York and New Jersey will compete in this year’s street football tournament in four-a-side matches. For one day, Times Square will be transformed into a black-and-yellow football arena.

The SSUSA Open Cup will follow, with BVB legend Patrick Owomoyela taking to the pitch alongside artists, athletes and creators. Announced participants include KidSuper, Michael Lahoud, iTekkers and Mark Ambor. The event will conclude with the finals and a “Top Baller” one-on-one competition.

The focus goes beyond sporting competition. The BVB World Street Series aims to give young people access to football and offer them extraordinary experiences at some of the world’s most iconic locations. Its motto reflects this ambition: “Built by every story.”

The series was created as part of the five-year partnership between BVB and Street Soccer USA. Its focus is on young people, local communities and the unifying power of football.

Beier played on the right wing in place of Julian Ryerson, with the Norwegian not even included in the matchday roster due to a bruised rib. Sabitzer replaced the injured Konstantinos Karetsas. On defense, Niko Kovac once again put his trust in the center back trio of Joane Gadou, Waldemar Anton and Nico Schlotterbeck. Germany ace Schlotterbeck had recovered just in time from his ligament injury suffered while on national team duty. <\/p>\n<img data-assetref=\"schlotterbeck-werder-1791574089972\" src=\"/content/dam/bvbweb/en/news/2026/10/09/spielbericht-bvb---werder/schlotterbeck-werder.jpg\"><\/p>\nAgainst a visiting side that sat extremely deep throughout the first half, and which lost former Dortmund man Amos Pieper to injury in the 19th minute, the Black & Yellow took a long time to create any noteworthy looks. Half an hour in, with Bremen happy to sit back and defend, the game was still completely devoid of any promising attacks. The 0-0 shot count at that point of the match marked a first for BVB this season, as did its the team's 75% possession advantage.<\/p>\nFittingly, the biggest round of applause from the stands of SIGNAL IDUNA PARK, which was once again sold out at a capacity of 81,365, came in response to a spectacular play by defensive prospect Joane Gadou, who sprinted back and reached a 50-meter throw by visiting goalkeeper Karl Jakob Hein at the last moment, managing to clear just ahead of Werder\u2019s Chuki.<\/p>\nThe away side, which had set up in a 5-4-1 formation, sat back inside its own half and looked for counterattacking opportunities. The strategy nearly paid off In the 37th minute, as a Ludovit Reis' shot following a quick transition whizzed narrowly wide of Gregor Kobel\u2019s goal.<\/p>\n<h2>BVB Wakes Up Before Halftime <\/h2>\nThat scare served as a wake-up call for the Black & Yellow. Marcel Sabitzer\u2019s subsequent free kick from just under 27 meters (roughly 29.5 yards) out missed the left post by mere centimeters (39\u2019), followed by big chances for Sabitzer (41\u2019) and Maxi Beier (43\u2019), each of whom was denied by outstanding goalkeeper Hein.<\/p>\n<img data-assetref=\"sabitzer-werder-1791575358285\" src=\"/content/dam/bvbweb/en/news/2026/10/09/spielbericht-bvb---werder/sabitzer-werder.jpg\"><\/p>\nIn the second half, BVB pushed even harder for the go-ahead goal. After Schlotterbeck (47') and Nwaneri (49') tried their luck from outside the box, the league leaders continued to look more determined, more focused, and more decisive in their attacking efforts. <\/p>\nIt was during this period of intense pressure by Dortmund that former Borussia man Niclas Füllkrug suddenly broke through. In the 54th minute, he ran toward Gregor Kobel but was knocked off balance by Joane Gadou, allowing the BVB 'keeper to make the point-black block.<\/p>\nWith Beier and Svensson, who was making his 50th Bundesliga appearance, playing on opposite wings from the first half, BVB continued to lay siege to Werder\u2019s penalty area. Nwaneri gave it a go from the left (61'), but his attempt was once again thwarted by Hein.<\/p>\n<h2>Nwaneri\u2019s Bicycle Kick Ruled Offside<\/h2>\nThe young Englishman sent SIGNAL IDUNA PARK into a frenzy in the 63rd minute, finding the net by way of a superb bicycle kick following a Svensson corner. However, referee Christian Dingert called the play back for a prior attacking foul by Waldemar Anton. Nwaneri was then replaced by Fabio Silva<\/p>\n<img data-assetref=\"nwaneri-fallruekk-1791578694310\" src=\"/content/dam/bvbweb/en/news/2026/10/09/spielbericht-bvb---werder/nwaneri-fallruekk.jpg\"><\/p>\nBy introducing Konstantinos Karetsas and Joey Veerman into the match, BVB Head Coach Niko Kovac injected fresh energy into his side's efforts to break down Bremen\u2019s defensive wall. Despite maintaining their dominance, the Black & Yellow struggled to find the evening's first goal. Meanwhile, Werder appeared content with the prospect of a scoreless draw..<\/p>\n<h2>15 Minutes of Chaos in Dortmund<\/h2>\nIn the final quarter-hour, SIGNAL IDUNA PARK turned into a madhouse. In the 80th minute, the Dortmund fans finally had reason to cheer. After winning the ball in his own half, Karetsas sent a long pass to Serhou Guirassy, who drove past Werder\u2019s Marco Friedl and centered the ball toward a streaking Fabio Silva. The Portuguese mishit his attempted finish from a prime position, inadvertently putting the ball on a platter for Daniel Svensson and allowing the Swede to find the net from close range (80'). <\/p>\n<img data-assetref=\"svensson-jubel-1791578676311\" src=\"/content/dam/bvbweb/en/news/2026/10/09/spielbericht-bvb---werder/svensson-jubel.jpg\"><\/p>\nLess than five minutes later, Nico Schlotterbeck seemed to have put the game away by heading home a Karetsas corner kick for 2-0. But just as the Yellow Wall began celebrating their team's likely occupation of first place at the end of the matchday, Ludovit Reis struck back with a powerful right-footed shot from about 24 meters (roughly 26 yards) out, finding the back of the net via the inside of the left upright. The strike cut Werder's deficit to 2-1 and set up a thrilling conclusion to the match.<\/p>\nHaving attacked furiously in the closing stages, the Bremen players rewarded themselves with a dramatic equalizer. Grüll chipped the ball toward the penalty spot, where Niclas Füllkrug headed home the equalizer in the second minute of stoppage time. <\/p>\nWith the draw, Borussia Dortmund remains atop of the Bundesliga standings \u2014 at least temporarily. The Black & Yellow next face Norwegian champion FK Bodø/Glimt in a midweek UEFA Champions League clash. The match, which is scheduled to kick off at 9 p.m. CEST on Wednesday, October 14, marks the first of three away games in six days for BVB.<\/p>\n<h2>Borussia Dortmund \u2013 SV WERDER BREMEN 2-2 (0-0)<\/b><\/h2>\nBVB:<\/b> Kobel \u2013 Gadou, Anton, Schlotterbeck \u2013 Beier, Bellingham (72\u2019 Veerman), Nmecha, Svensson \u2013 Nwaneri (63\u2019 Fabio Silva), Sabitzer (72\u2019 Karetsas) \u2013 Guirassy \nBench:<\/b> Meyer, Bensebaini, Kaua Prates, Inacio, Albert, Reggiani<\/p>\nWerder:<\/b> Hein \u2013 Arthur (65' Weiser), Pieper (19' Wojcik), Friedl, Deman \u2013 Regeer (65' Stalmach), Reis \u2013 Chuki (81' Erevbenagie) \u2013 Dinkci (81.

After Schlotterbeck (47') and Nwaneri (49') tried their luck from outside the box, the league leaders continued to look more determined, more focused, and more decisive in their attacking efforts. <\/p>\nIt was during this period of intense pressure by Dortmund that former Borussia man Niclas Füllkrug suddenly broke through. In the 54th minute, he ran toward Gregor Kobel but was knocked off balance by Joane Gadou, allowing the BVB 'keeper to make the point-black block.<\/p>\nWith Beier and Svensson, who was making his 50th Bundesliga appearance, playing on opposite wings from the first half, BVB continued to lay siege to Werder\u2019s penalty area. Nwaneri gave it a go from the left (61'), but his attempt was once again thwarted by Hein.<\/p>\n<h2>Nwaneri\u2019s Bicycle Kick Ruled Offside<\/h2>\nThe young Englishman sent SIGNAL IDUNA PARK into a frenzy in the 63rd minute, finding the net by way of a superb bicycle kick following a Svensson corner. However, referee Christian Dingert called the play back for a prior attacking foul by Waldemar Anton. Nwaneri was then replaced by Fabio Silva<\/p>\n<img data-assetref=\"nwaneri-fallruekk-1791578694310\" src=\"/content/dam/bvbweb/en/news/2026/10/09/spielbericht-bvb---werder/nwaneri-fallruekk.jpg\"><\/p>\nBy introducing Konstantinos Karetsas and Joey Veerman into the match, BVB Head Coach Niko Kovac injected fresh energy into his side's efforts to break down Bremen\u2019s defensive wall. Despite maintaining their dominance, the Black & Yellow struggled to find the evening's first goal. Meanwhile, Werder appeared content with the prospect of a scoreless draw..<\/p>\n<h2>15 Minutes of Chaos in Dortmund<\/h2>\nIn the final quarter-hour, SIGNAL IDUNA PARK turned into a madhouse. In the 80th minute, the Dortmund fans finally had reason to cheer. After winning the ball in his own half, Karetsas sent a long pass to Serhou Guirassy, who drove past Werder\u2019s Marco Friedl and centered the ball toward a streaking Fabio Silva. The Portuguese mishit his attempted finish from a prime position, inadvertently putting the ball on a platter for Daniel Svensson and allowing the Swede to find the net from close range (80'). <\/p>\n<img data-assetref=\"svensson-jubel-1791578676311\" src=\"/content/dam/bvbweb/en/news/2026/10/09/spielbericht-bvb---werder/svensson-jubel.jpg\"><\/p>\nLess than five minutes later, Nico Schlotterbeck seemed to have put the game away by heading home a Karetsas corner kick for 2-0. But just as the Yellow Wall began celebrating their team's likely occupation of first place at the end of the matchday, Ludovit Reis struck back with a powerful right-footed shot from about 24 meters (roughly 26 yards) out, finding the back of the net via the inside of the left upright. The strike cut Werder's deficit to 2-1 and set up a thrilling conclusion to the match.<\/p>\nHaving attacked furiously in the closing stages, the Bremen players rewarded themselves with a dramatic equalizer. Grüll chipped the ball toward the penalty spot, where Niclas Füllkrug headed home the equalizer in the second minute of stoppage time. <\/p>\nWith the draw, Borussia Dortmund remains atop of the Bundesliga standings \u2014 at least temporarily. The Black & Yellow next face Norwegian champion FK Bodø/Glimt in a midweek UEFA Champions League clash. The match, which is scheduled to kick off at 9 p.m. CEST on Wednesday, October 14, marks the first of three away games in six days for BVB.<\/p>\n<h2>Borussia Dortmund \u2013 SV WERDER BREMEN 2-2 (0-0)<\/b><\/h2>\nBVB:<\/b> Kobel \u2013 Gadou, Anton, Schlotterbeck \u2013 Beier, Bellingham (72\u2019 Veerman), Nmecha, Svensson \u2013 Nwaneri (63\u2019 Fabio Silva), Sabitzer (72\u2019 Karetsas) \u2013 Guirassy \nBench:<\/b> Meyer, Bensebaini, Kaua Prates, Inacio, Albert, Reggiani<\/p>\nWerder:<\/b> Hein \u2013 Arthur (65' Weiser), Pieper (19' Wojcik), Friedl, Deman \u2013 Regeer (65' Stalmach), Reis \u2013 Chuki (81' Erevbenagie) \u2013 Dinkci (81.
