DORTMUND: Borussia Dortmund clinched a 4-3 thriller at home against Augsburg on Sunday as Sebastien Haller returned to the team after battling testicular cancer.

Dortmund took the lead three times, only for Augsburg to equalize, exploiting the home side’s disorganized defense. Dortmund manager Edin Terzic brought on Jamie Bynoe-Gittens and Gio Reyna in the 70th minute, with both wingers scoring goals to help carry their team to victory.

Terzic praised his team’s resilience in a “wild, chaotic match.” “I’m happy we still won the game with all the setbacks. The positive thing is that we fought back.” Augsburg coach Enrico Maassen said his side, who are just one place above the relegation playoff spot, could take positives from the “annoying” result. “We played a huge game.

We will get our points if we play like this.” Dortmund had the better of the early proceedings before Jude Bellingham broke through in the 29th minute.
