Borussia Dortmund thumped by five-star Stuttgart
Borussia Dortmund suffered a shock 5-1 defeat to VfB Stuttgart on Saturday, leaving head coach Lucien Favre on the brink. It was a sorry performance from the Black and Yellows, who have now won just one of their last five games in the Bundesliga.
Stuttgart carved open the Dortmund defence at will, and had it not been for goalkeeper Roman Bürki, the scoreline would have looked even uglier for the home side.
Silas Wamangituka continued his fine run of form by netting a brace, while Philipp Förster, Tanguy Coulibaly and Nicolas Gonzalez also scored for the newly promoted side. Gio Reyna scored what only proved to be a consolation for Dortmund.
