Borussia Dortmund could not secure a home victory this Saturday against Mainz 05, finishing the game in a 2-2 stalemate and relinquishing the opportunity to claim the Bundesliga crown eleven years after their last triumph. The atmosphere at Signal Iduna Park bore the weight of a pivotal day, as Dortmund stumbled early and handed their rivals a momentum they could not fully overcome later in the match.

All the details of Borussia Dortmund versus Mainz 05, including the scorers and key moments, are available for those who want a complete recap of the action.

Olsen and Onisiwo supplied the goals for Mainz in the first half, the latter standing out as the most dangerous player on the field and helping his team take a lead that left the home fans quiet and contemplative. After Dortmund leveled at 1-1, Haller saw a late penalty saved, a moment that could have shifted the balance of the game in favor of the home side.

Into the second half, Dortmund pushed hard to overturn the deficit, but the comeback did not materialize. Bayern Munich also faced a stern test against Cologne but managed to clinch the title through persistent performance. Bellingham remained off the field due to a knee injury, watching from the substitutes bench as Guerreiro and Süle found the back of the net for Dortmund.
