Partly understandable Borussia, BVB for short: On the surface, things are going great in Dortmund. But behind results like the 3-1 win against Bochum, a lot is in the fog – including the three-goal scorer Füllkrug.
The game had been over for a while and the Dortmund team had long since let their fans cheer them for their 3-1 win against VfL Bochum, when goalkeeper Alexander Meyer still hadn’t fully understood who the celebrated hero of that afternoon was.
“Now that you say it: That’s right, he did the second one too,” said the representative of the sick goalkeeper Gregor Kobel on the club’s own TV channel after he was asked about the three-time goalscorer Niclas Füllkrug. “I just noticed that now, I’m happy for him.” The slight lack of attention in the dressing room fit in well with this game, which was not easy to understand in many aspects.
