Borussia Dortmund 0-0 Barcelona: 3 talking points after Barcelona played goal-less draw against Borussia Dortmund

#3 Borussia Dortmund’s poor luck and finishing

Borussia Dortmund 0-0 Barcelona

Borussia Dortmund surely had more chances and shots attempted in comparison to Barcelona, plus a penalty. However, the German club had its own fair share of poor luck and finishing.

Whenever the club was about to score against Barcelona, something strange always crossed the paths of the host team. Either it was tough luck or the team made a poor decision inside the box.

Plus, with VAR not giving a penalty re-take to BVB further took away genuine goal-scoring chances from Borussia Dortmund. Although, some credits should also be gone to Marc-Andre Ter Stegen, who made a fantastic performance tonight.

Even a spectacular attempt by Julian Brandt was denied by the goal-post, as it struck it with the lightning speed. Thus, this shows how the host remained unlucky with the number of chances they had against the Catalan giants but the match remained 0-0.
