Towards the end of the game, the Italians had a good chance of inflicting BVB’s second defeat in a row in the premier class. This was also the case in the 82nd minute, when left-back Theo Hernández headed over the goal after a standard. However, the Frenchman’s attempt was only made possible by Karim Adeyemi, who hesitantly went to the ball after a cross from Rafael Leao – and let Hernández rush through.
DAZN expert Jonas Hummels, Mats’ younger brother, sharply criticized the national player’s action: “Adeyemi is completely asleep at the back. That’s a behavior that the more I see it, the more I shudder. That’s my own penalty. And even if he is an offensive player, Karim Adeyemi just has to get into the ball,” said the 33-year-old.
Adeyemi came on in the 64th minute for Julian Brandt, but was hardly able to make any decisive impact. In the end, BVB at least got their first point, but their joy about it was limited. “It’s more like two points lost,” summarized BVB striker Niclas Füllkrug on DAZN.
