Berlin, May 27 (Ians) Approaching the Bundesliga season’s final matchday could evoke strong emotions for Marco Reus.
Apart from the excitement gripping the entire club and millions of supporters, achieving success this Saturday could, in a peculiar way, serve as a crowning moment in the career of the soon-to-be 34-year-old forward, reports Xinhua.
Despite a lengthy career encompassing over 370 competitive games, the Borussia Dortmund striker, who has been capped 48 times for Germany, has never joined the exclusive circle of Bundesliga title winners.
A combination of unfortunate injuries and the dominance of title rivals Bayern Munich over the past decade resulted in Germany’s Footballer of the Year for 2012 and 2019 securing only two German Cup victories, in 2017 and 2019.
The upcoming encounter on home soil against Mainz, with Borussia Dortmund holding a two-point lead in the Bundesliga table, could help bridge the somewhat painful gap in Reus’ career.

Berlin, March 19 (Ians) Borussia Dortmund cruised to a 6-1 victory over hapless Cologne as four first-half goals paved the way for their 17th Bundesliga win at the 25th round, here.
The Bvb dominated possession from the kick-off and opened the scoring with 15 minutes gone as Donyell Malen danced through Cologne’s defender before squaring into the path of Raphael Guerreiro, who beat Cologne goalkeeper Marvin Schwabe from a tight angle on Saturday night.
Dortmund gained momentum and made it two minutes later when Sebastien Haller hammered home Guerreiro’s assist to flabbergast the visitors, a Xinhua report said.
Cologne showed a sign of life and almost halved the deficit out of the blue but for all that Dortmund custodian Alexander Meyer palmed Dejan Ljubicic’s dangerous attempt to the left post in the 21st minute.

Berlin, March 6 (Ians) Having experienced all sorts of ups and downs in football might be a reason for Marco Reus not to appear overwhelmingly enthusiastic these days.
Rarely has another German footballer learned the hard way how quickly things can slip out of one’s hand when life interferes with your dreams.
It is far from a secret that the Borussia Dortmund forward is enjoying his side’s current good form, as silverware has come within reach.
But ahead of the second leg of the UEFA Champions League last-16 encounter against Premier League side Chelsea, the 33-year-old is taking things easy despite a 1-0 lead after the first game, reports news agency Xinhua.
Reus seems to count on letting actions speak louder than words despite the current upswing.

Berlin, March 4 (Ians) First-half goals from Marco Reus and Emre Can helped Borussia Dortmund go top of Bundesliga after moving 2-1 past resilient Leipzig at the curtain raiser of the 23rd round.
Leipzig caught the better start on the road and came close with five minutes played when Dominik Szoboszlai unleashed a hammer from long range before Christopher Nkunku pulled wide from a promising position two minutes later, reports Xinhua news agency.
The hosts thought they had opened the scoring out of the blue, but Julian Brandt’s goal was ruled offside by the video assistant referee in the 15th minute.
Dortmund eventually broke the deadlock five minutes later as Leipzig goalkeeper Janis Blaswich fouled Reus inside the box. The Germany veteran stepped up and converted the subsequent penalty to open the scoring in the 21st minute.

Berlin (Germany), Feb 25 Ians) The excitement around Borussia Dortmund couldn’t be greater as the team is riding the wave delivering eight consecutive wins.
They are back in the national league’s title race and the successful first-leg encounter in the Round of 16 of the Champions League against Chelsea makes fans dream of the first national championship since 2012.
For the club, the winning streak simultaneously holds dangers as not only the team’s restructuring does continue behind the scenes, but coach Edin Terzic is repeatedly launching the message: “We haven’t reached anything yet and need to stay tuned.”
While silverware has come within reach, the club is building its next season squad, reports news agency Xinhua.
Reports speak of agreements with national rival performers such as Frankfurt’s courted Japanese midfielder Daichi Kamada and Moenchengladbach’s defender Ramy Bensebaini.

Berlin (Germany), Jan 9 (Ians) The mountain of challenges ahead doesn’t seem to bother struggling Bundesliga side, Borussia Dortmund.
Enjoying the pleasant atmosphere in Southern Spain, the Black and Yellows in their winter break training camp in Marbella couldn’t be in a better mood as future troubles seem temporarily excluded.
The team’s uncertain future somehow seems masked by the return of Sebastien Haller (testicular cancer) and several other injured players.
Coach Edin Terzic is happy about the growing competition in his squad and is drawing an optimistic picture for the future.
A good start, the coach is convinced, might help to solve the 2012 German champions’ problems.
Having to make up nine points in the race for the national title and facing the English giant Chelsea in the Round of 16 of the Champions League appear as minor tasks compared to growing rumours regarding the future of the squads’ cornerstones.

Berlin (Germany), Oct 28 (Ians) Selecting his squad for the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar comes near a nail-biting puzzle for German coach Hansi Flick.
With roughly two weeks to go until the 57-year-old will announce the 26 players on November 10, Flick is facing several doubtful cases among key figures.
Uncertainties around team cornerstones such as Dortmund striker Marco Reus and Bayern’s Manuel Neuer and Thomas Muller come along with doubts if the German defense can do without Mats Hummels.
While Neuer and Reus suffer from injuries and remain side-lined in their club teams, Muller is facing what the Bayern striker called the “on-and-off modus I am not used to.”
After recovering from a Covid-19 infection, the 33-year-old has to deal with back pain while the reasons for the injury remain in the dark, reports Xinhua.

Berlin (Germany), Oct 4 (Ians) Good news currently seems a rare commodity when it comes to the German football club Borussia Dortmund.
Ahead of the Champions League group encounter against Sevilla this Wednesday, the 2012 German champion find themselves exposed to stiff headwinds.
Disappointments about three league defeats are accompanied by an unpleasant debate about the team’s mentality problem, triggered by coach Edin Terzic.
“The lack of determination has been following us over the past years,” Terzic complained.
Crucial duels against Sevilla (twice) and national issues against Bayern Munich and Bundesliga leader Union Berlin, therefore, turn into do-or-die tasks as the club’s future seems at stake.
Plans to challenge the national leagues’ dominant stag Bayern Munich seem already shattered early in the 2022-2023 season, reports Xinhua.

Berlin, Sep 20 (Ians) Bayern Munich’s newly implemented spearhead-less tactics are an advantage for the national team, says German coach Hansi Flick.
Ahead of the UEFA Nations League encounters against Hungary and England, the 57-year-old is convinced the 2014 world champion is going to benefit from the Bavarian players’ gained experience.
While the Nations League games turn into the national teams’ last vital test runs ahead of the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar, the former Bayern coach isn’t concerned due to the 2020 treble winners’ current result crisis.
“As I recon they still create a flood of chances in all of their games; that’s what counts for me,” the former midfielder stated ahead of Friday’s duel against Hungary in Leipzig.
Regarding the performance of Leroy Sane, Serge Gnabry, Thomas Muller, and Jamal Musiala in the German shirt, Flick spoke about advantages as “they play more or less similar positions and system in their club.

Berlin, Sep 7 (Ians) Borussia Dortmund started their UEFA Champions League campaign with a win, cruising 3-0 past Copenhagen thanks to goals from Marco Reus, Raphael Guerreiro and Jude Bellingham in Group D action.
The visitors from Denmark started brightly and almost shocked Dortmund as Zeca’s long-range effort flew just wide seconds into the encounter.
Dortmund quickly assumed control but lacked accuracy in front of goal, as Anthony Modeste pulled wide from ten meters before Salih Ozcan’s hammer fell short at the half-hour mark, reports Xinhua.
The Bvb eventually got their reward and opened the scoring as Julian Brandt’s pass went into the path of Reus, who shrugged off one defender before slotting the ball past Copenhagen goalkeeper Mathew Ryan in the 35th minute.
Dortmund increased the pressure and made it 2-0 just seven minutes later when Giovanni Reyna’s pass allowed Guerreiro to slot home from eight meters.

Berlin, March 29 (Ians) Satisfying results against two underdogs don't conceal Germany's most pressing problem. At this summer's European Championship, coach Joachim Loew's team will have to do the job without an out-and-out spearhead.
The 2022 World Cup qualifiers against Iceland (3-0) and Romania (1-0) showed distinct profligacy in converting chances, something that is causing concern.
Leroy Sane (City), Serge Gnabry (Bayern), and Timo Werner, and Kai Havertz (Chelsea) might be skillful wingers, but the four are far from being goal-scoring machines.
An inadequacy in converting chances at their clubs and in the national team is becoming one of the primary concerns for Loew when facing leading football nations such as France and Portugal and then Hungary in the group stage at the continental tournament, Xinhua news reported.
"If we had a Lewandowski around, we would win every game," former Bayern president and TV pundit Uli Hoeness said, adding: "But we don't.
