First half
The hosts were missing their top-scorer Alexander Langlitz through suspension and fell behind in the ninth minute against the run of play when Kolbeinn Finnsson steered Tobias Raschl misdirected shot towards the far corner.
The Eagles responded almost immediately and equalised three minutes later when Gerrit Wegkamp headed Dennis Daube’s deep free kick into the bottom corner.
The hosts were taking the game to the Black and Yellows and Joel Grodowski brought a save out of Luca Unbehaun after an excellent dribble.
Dortmund II’s defence were opened up again as Gerrit Wegkamp’s through ball played Grodowski through but his angled shot was saved once more.
Second half
In the second half, Enrico Maaßen’s side were much-improved and grew into the game. Top-scorer Steffen Tigges fired over when he was found in space by Finnsson.
Grodowski missed the best chance in the game in the 55th minute when he blazed over from close range.
The final half-hour was lively but there was no further drama as both sides settled for a point.
What it means
