Borussia Dortmund lost the away game at 1. FC Köln 2:3 and missed the leap to the top of the table. BVB took a deserved 1-0 lead against the billy goats through a goal by Julian Brandt (31st), but gave up the lead within four minutes and was down after goals by Florian Kainz (53rd) and Steffen Tigges of all people (56.), who only moved from Dortmund to the cathedral city in the summer, was 2-1 down after just under an hour. In the 71st, Dejan Ljubicic even increased it to 3:1. Despite an own goal by Benno Schmitz after a cross from talented Tom Rothe (78th), the Black and Yellows were no longer able to avert their third Bundesliga defeat of the season. The bankruptcy was hotly debated online.

True to the motto "Nothing new in the west", many disappointed BVB fans drew parallels to the past few years, when the team repeatedly lost important points against supposedly smaller opponents and never found the necessary consistency to seriously intervene in the title race.

The focus of the discussions was always newcomer Anthony Modeste, who again hardly appeared against his former club. A number of supporters can no longer understand why the Frenchman is allowed to play from the start week after week, while top talent Youssoufa Moukoko has to be content with the bench.

But coach Edin Terzic is also questioned by the black and yellow appendix. Some fans still miss a clear game philosophy and cannot see any progress compared to predecessor Marco Rose.
