In the DFB Pokal match between Borussia Dortmund and Borussia Monchengladbach, the home team's strategic dominance was evident through their 3-1 victory. Dortmund opened the scoring in the first half, timing their goal at 40:19, which not only set a positive tone but also rattled their opponents early. Statistically, Borussia Dortmund's attacking prowess was highlighted by their consistent pressure, fortified by securing five corner kicks compared to Monchengladbach's single corner.

The second half showcased Dortmund's continued application of strategic pressure, resulting in their second and third goals at 68:33 and 87:00, respectively. Despite Monchengladbach's momentary comeback with a goal at 76:03, Dortmund's resilience and team coordination ensured their commanding lead. The lone goal for Monchengladbach was not enough, and their lack of disciplinary issues, not receiving any yellow cards, was overshadowed by their minimal offensive opportunities, reflected in the sparse number of corners.

The match observed minimal fouls from both sides, each team committing only two, which suggests a contest of finesse rather than aggression. Dortmund's issuance of a single yellow card in the second half at 78:02 didn't disrupt their rhythm, as they efficiently managed the remaining game time. The numerical equality in fouls indicates disciplined defensive play from both squads, yet Dortmund’s ability to convert both early and late in halves was a decisive factor in their triumph.
