Naby Keita returned with a strong performance after missing Leipzig's last three games with a thigh injury. He threaded a perfect through pass to Jean-Kevin Augustin to set up Leipzig's first goal. Mahmoud Dahoud countered that midfield brilliance with some of his own less than ten minutes later, setting up Marco Reus for the equalizer with a terrific ball through Leipzig's defense.

Dortmund has dropped from second place to third place in the table as a result and Leipzig's winless streak extends to four games.

As it happened...
