Augsburg 2-1 Dortmund: Report, Ratings & Reaction as Die Borussen Suffer Shock Bundesliga Loss

Bundesliga league leaders Borussia Dortmund suffered a shock 2-1 defeat at the hands of Augsburg on Friday night as their quest for the Bundesliga title suffered a major blow.

A niggly opening nearly saw Lucien Favre's concede a penalty after three minutes. Dan-Axel Zagadou clattered over former Sunderland striker Ji Dong-won inside the box - but the offside flag was fortunately raised against the South Korean.

With Dortmund seeing plenty of possession, despite not creating many opportunities, they fell behind after 24 minutes. Andre Hahn's cross from the right was controlled and shot goalward by Ji, but after the ex-Black Cat's first effort was blocked he recovered to side-foot the rebound into the top corner to hand the Bundesliga strugglers a shock lead.
