Dive into Bwin’s post-match review of Borussia Dortmund 3-3 VfB Stuttgart in the Bundesliga on Saturday, 22 November 2025, with stats, key moments and our take on the match.
Borussia Dortmund took control in the first half after VfB Stuttgart's Finn Jeltsch received a yellow card in the 24th minute, with Emre Can converting a penalty in the 34th minute to open the scoring, assisted by none. Maximilian Beier then doubled the lead with a normal goal in the 41st minute, again without an assist, giving Dortmund a comfortable advantage going into the break. The half was marked by disciplined play, with no further cards or major incidents disrupting the flow.
The second half saw VfB Stuttgart fight back strongly, as Deniz Undav scored a normal goal assisted by Bilal El Khannouss in the 47th minute to reduce the deficit, followed by another from Undav assisted by Maximilian Mittelstadt in the 71st minute to level the scores. Substitutions played a key role, with Dortmund bringing on D. Svensson for J. Brandt in the 73rd minute and K. Adeyemi for C. Chukwuemeka in the 77th minute, the latter making an impact by scoring a normal goal assisted by M. Beier in the 89th minute to regain the lead. However, Stuttgart responded dramatically with Undav completing his hat-trick via a normal goal assisted by C. Fuhrich in the 90th minute, securing a thrilling 3-3 draw amid late substitutions from both sides.
VfB Stuttgart edged possession with 54% compared to Borussia Dortmund's 46%, allowing them to dictate the tempo in spells and create more corner opportunities at 4 against Dortmund's 2, which contributed to their comeback by maintaining pressure in the attacking third. Dortmund, however, dominated successful dribbles with 43 to Stuttgart's 31, showcasing their flair and ability to break lines, which directly influenced their goals through individual brilliance, though their single assist paled against Stuttgart's 3, highlighting the visitors' superior teamwork in setting up scoring chances. Both teams received one yellow card each, with no red cards or yellow-reds issued, keeping the match competitive without major disruptions, while Dortmund's penalty scored in the first half proved crucial, and Stuttgart's five substitutions compared to Dortmund's three allowed fresher legs to chase the game late on, ultimately leading to the equaliser.
The lack of injury-time goals meant all the drama unfolded within regulation time, but the higher number of assists for Stuttgart underlined their efficiency in converting opportunities, turning what could have been a Dortmund victory into a hard-fought draw.
The match's turning point came early when Borussia Dortmund were awarded a penalty in the 34th minute, calmly converted by Emre Can to break the deadlock, setting the tone for their first-half dominance. VfB Stuttgart's response in the second half was swift, with Deniz Undav's goal in the 47th minute sparking their revival, followed by his second in the 71st minute to equalise and shift momentum. A key substitution saw K. Adeyemi come on for C. Chukwuemeka in the 77th minute, paying dividends as Adeyemi scored in the 89th minute to put Dortmund ahead again, only for Undav to seal his hat-trick in the 90th minute and rescue a point in a pulsating finish.
Maximilian Beier's yellow card in the 81st minute added tension for Dortmund, but impactful changes like C. Fuhrich replacing T. Tomas in the 73rd minute for Stuttgart provided the creativity needed for the late equaliser, underlining how tactical adjustments influenced the outcome without any red cards altering the player count.
Borussia Dortmund lined up in a 3-4-3 formation, emphasising width and attacking intent through wing-backs, with standout partnerships evident in the forward line where Maximilian Beier linked effectively with players like Karim Adeyemi after the latter's introduction, providing both goals and assists, while Emre Can anchored the midfield with his leadership and penalty-taking composure.
VfB Stuttgart deployed a 4-2-3-1 shape, focusing on a solid double pivot in midfield to support their attacking trio, where Deniz Undav's central role as the striker shone through with his clinical finishing, complemented by creative partnerships with wingers like Christian Fuhrich, who came on to deliver a crucial assist, and Maximilian Mittelstadt contributing from the left-back position before his substitution.
Deniz Undav was the standout performer and deservedly Man of the Match, netting a sensational hat-trick with goals in the 47th, 71st, and 90th minutes to drag VfB Stuttgart back from a two-goal deficit and secure a valuable point. His clinical finishing, aided by assists from teammates, demonstrated sharp movement and composure under pressure, making him the game's most influential figure despite not starting any substitutions himself.
