As the 2. Bundesliga kicked off this weekend, Bundesliga clubs are still enjoying their summer break and gearing up for the new season with friendly matches. Borussia Dortmund is no exception, recently defeating Arsenal 3-2 in London.
Joane Gadou scored to make it 3-1 following a corner kick. While the Black and Yellows were excited to score against Arsenal, a team known for their strengths on set pieces, a rival club took the opportunity to taunt them on ‘X’.
Bayer Leverkusen chimed in on Dortmund’s post with the remark, “late to the party,” referencing their own match against Arsenal in the Round of 16 last season, which ended in a 1-1 draw. In that game, Robert Andrich had scored from a corner, setting Leverkusen up nicely for the second leg, although they ended up losing and were eliminated by the heavy favorites.
Despite the past, Leverkusen couldn’t resist taking a playful jab at BVB today.
