Borussia Dortmund held by Union Berlin

· Bundesliga-Official

Borussia Dortmund dropped points for the second league game in a row after playing out a goalless draw at Union Berlin.

The game began with controversy as Ethan Nwaneri caught Tom Rothe with a sliding challenge inside the opening minute, with referee Daniel Schlager initially producing a red card by mistake before correcting it to yellow.

Waldemar Anton and Serhou Guirassy also picked up early bookings, taking the tally to three cautions inside the first quarter of an hour. Union's Janik Haberer and Rothe then joined the list before half-time, as the match turned increasingly robust.

The best chances of the half came late: Nwaneri spurned a good opening when he failed to connect cleanly after a square pass, before Kastriot Imeri drove a free-kick from almost the touchline that Gregor Kobel did brilliantly to keep out with a low save.
