Dortmund held to goalless draw at Union Berlin despite title push

Borussia Dortmund were held to a goalless stalemate at Union Berlin on Saturday, marking their second draw in successive Bundesliga fixtures. The result, while maintaining the visitors' unbeaten record, saw them accumulate 14 points atop the league standings.

Despite their commanding position, Dortmund struggled to break down a resilient Union Berlin defence throughout the encounter. The match lacked the attacking verve typically associated with the Rhineland club, with both sides cancelling each other out in a tightly contested affair.

The draw came at a cost for the visitors, with midfielder Karetsas forced from the field due to injury during the match. The extent of his injury remains to be assessed ahead of Dortmund's next fixture.

Dortmund's inability to convert their chances means they have now drawn their last two league outings. While their 14-point haul keeps them clear at the summit, the streak of draws suggests vulnerabilities that could prove problematic if the trend continues.
