Haris Tabaković’s late goal not only secured a crucial win for Mönchengladbach but also marked their first victory over Dortmund since November 2022. The match ended 1-0 at Borussia-Park.

Tabaković scored in the 88th minute after his initial attempt was ruled offside. VAR reviewed the play and confirmed he was onside from Reitz’s pass, allowing the goal to stand. This victory ensured Mönchengladbach’s Bundesliga status for next season.

Dortmund needed three points to guarantee second place in the league. However, they fell short and have now lost three of their last four games. Nico Elvedi had a goal disallowed for offside in the first half, adding to Dortmund’s frustrations.

Nico Schlotterbeck was voted Man of the Match despite Dortmund’s loss, receiving 29 percent of the votes. He played a key role in defense throughout the match.

Mönchengladbach had not won in the league since March 13 before this encounter. They entered the match six points clear of the relegation zone. The win provides a much-needed boost as they head into the final two games of the season.

Observers note that Dortmund has secured UEFA Champions League qualification for next season, but their recent form raises questions about their consistency going forward.
