Bünning Scores at Both Ends as Dresden’s Winless Streak Continues in Münster

Dynamo Dresden’s winless streak continues after a dramatic 2-2 draw against Preußen Münster. Despite taking the lead twice, the team could not secure a victory in this intense matchup, marking their sixth consecutive game without a win.

Bünning Scores at Both Ends in a Thrilling Match

Defender Lars Bünning experienced a rollercoaster of emotions, scoring for both teams during the match. The woes for Dresden persisted as they aimed to reverse their poor form, having gone five games without a win in the Second Bundesliga.

Match Overview and Team Changes

Head coach Thomas Stamm made several changes ahead of the game, introducing seven new players to the lineup. This tactical shift was intended to invigorate the squad after a recent 3-3 draw against KSC. Key substitutions included:

  • Grill
  • Boeder
  • Bünning
  • Rossipal
  • Sapina
  • Menzel
  • Lemmer

Dresden started aggressively, putting pressure on Münster and creating early chances. Despite some missed opportunities, the visitors showcased their determination and took the lead in the 23rd minute.

First Half Highlights

Rossipal scored a spectacular direct free-kick from over 20 meters, displaying precision and power to find the upper corner of the net, leaving goalkeeper Schenk no chance. However, Münster responded positively, although they struggled to convert their chances.

Second Half Shift

The second half began with Münster showing increased intensity, leading to an equalizer. In the 51st minute, Hendrix capitalized on a defensive lapse from Dresden, finishing a well-placed volley to make it 1-1.

As the match progressed, Bünning scored again, this time restoring the lead for Dresden in the 70th minute with a header from a Rossipal free-kick. However, disaster struck for Bünning in the 85th minute when he accidentally deflected a shot from Bolay into his own net, leveling the score once more.

Ending Drama

The match concluded with a tense atmosphere as Münster sought a late winner. Dresden managed to hold their ground, but the game took a controversial turn when Kutschke received a red card for a foul in the seventh minute of stoppage time.

Upcoming Matches

Dynamo Dresden will look to end their winless streak when they face SC Paderborn next Saturday at 1 PM. Meanwhile, Preußen Münster will travel to Magdeburg the following day, also kicking off at 1:30 PM.
