BERLIN — Borussia Dortmund claimed the provisional lead of the German Bundesliga standings on Friday evening following a hard-earned 1-0 victory against Eintracht Frankfurt, powered by a crucial late strike from substitute Maximilian Beier.
This vital triumph places the North Rhine-Westphalia outfit at the pinnacle of the domestic league table, momentarily halting the intense competition at the summit. The encounter appeared destined for a scoreless stalemate until Beier, introduced from the bench, broke through the resolute Frankfurt defensive block to secure the maximum three points.
