There's no question that the result was just about the best possible outcome for Borussia. The 0-0 draw in their opening match against Fluminense from Rio de Janeiro, arguably the toughest opponents in the group, leaves the Black & Yellows in a strong position in their Club World Cup group. A first-place finish in the group is very much within reach.<\/p>\n","title":"Teaser Text","multiValue":false,"value":"There's no question that the result was just about the best possible outcome for Borussia.

The match statistics spoke for themselves: Dortmund only won 44% of their tackles and had seven shots on goal compared to their opponents' 14. That's not to say the Brazilians created many chances either, with only 0.64 xGoals (expected goals) compared to 0.24 for BVB. The Black & Yellows' comments after the match were equally clear. \u201cWe didn't get a foothold. We were a step off the pace,\u201d said Pascal Gross. \u201cWe played too slowly,\u201d said Waldemar Anton. And Julian Brandt noted: \u201cThey were more aggressive, but that was also because we kept playing through the centre. They were on the front foot, always looking to break out. Our solutions were actually on the wings, but we didn't take advantage of them.\u201d<\/p>\n

Julian Ryerson and Daniel Svensson were virtually uninvolved in Dortmund\u2019s sluggish attacking play. And Fluminense had the centre of the park under control. The special circumstances were mentioned, but should not be used as an excuse (Gregor Kobel). In addition to the climatic conditions \u2013 it was extremely humid and the grass was unusually short \u2013 there was also the time difference. While Borussia have only been in the USA since Friday, Fluminense operate in virtually the same time zone. Borussia played their last game on 17 May, the Brazilians came straight from their active domestic season.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s not a disaster, but we need a clear improvement,\u201d warned Pascal Gross, while Waldemar Anton stated: \u201cAt the end of the day, we got a point, and that\u2019s the most important thing. So we\u2019ll take the point and try to do better in the next few games.\u201d Borussia Dortmund are treating the 0-0 draw as a point gained and are aiming to win their next two matches against Mamelodi Sundowns from South Africa and Ulsan HD from South Korea. Incidentally, the meeting between these two sides ended 1-0 in favour of the Africans.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe guys who played a lot will recover, the others will do a little bit more work, and then the guys will have the afternoon off so they can clear their heads,\u201d announced Niko Kovac. \u201cBeing in the hotel under air conditioning all the time isn\u2019t easy. That\u2019s why they should get out a bit in the afternoon, explore the area a little \u2013 and then we\u2019ll definitely meet up again in the evening.\u201d
