Dortmund (dpa) - Relieved and exhausted, match winner Erling Haaland fell on the lawn.

Borussia Dortmund has trembled thanks to the Norwegian scorer in the quarter-finals of the DFB Cup and drove the round of 16 curse with great difficulty.

After three knockouts among the last 16 teams, the Revierclub made it to the next cup round with the hard-won 3: 2 (2: 2, 2: 0) after extra time over the second division soccer club SC Paderborn.

With this, BVB probably had the last chance for a national title, but the performance against the perky outsider was anything but title-ready.

Erling Haaland gave BVB the chance to advance in the empty Dortmund stadium with his goal in the 95th minute and thus averted another disappointment of the black-yellows who were beaten in the championship this season.

This was preceded by an almost five-minute video study to see whether the Norwegian had previously been sidelined.

Haaland probably did too, but referee Tobias Stieler wanted to have seen a Paderborn touch beforehand.

That got the SCP coach Steffen Baumgart angry.

«That is a cheek.

We have the pictures, he can look at them 20 times.

I think it's cheeky to make a touch of the ball out of it.

It's getting ridiculous.

That annoys me, nobody deserves it.

This is how we make apes.

Respect also means looking at the shit and making a decision, "said Baumgart in the ARD and added:" This is about two million for us.

I'm not a stock corporation, we fight for every tired mark.

I'm curious to see whether I will get a letter from the DFB because I was upset. "

BVB could have saved such a nerve-wracking game after early goals by Emre Can (6th minute) and Jadon Sancho (16th).

But Julian Justvan (79th) and the late penalty goal by Prince Owusu (90th + 7th) brought the East Westphalia back into the game.

In contrast to the cup coup against the top team from Union Berlin (3-2) at the end of December, the Paderborn team was not rewarded for their courage this time.

“We scored two goals quickly and then it'll be a cup game where anything can happen.

I hope it was a great cup evening for the audience.

It was tough for us, ”said Dortmund's Thomas Delaney on ARD.

In fact, as in the 3: 3 in the Bundesliga duel at the same location around 15 months ago, BVB experienced an unpleasant evening.

It all started so well for BVB.

While Manuel Akanji had missed the huge chance to head the lead after the first corner (6th), Can was there seconds later.

After the Ostwestfalen had acted completely confused after a corner, the ball fell at the feet of the midfielder, who shot in from a short distance to the Dortmund leadership.

The BVB-Express then rolled on.

Only two minutes later Haaland was free, but SC keeper Leopold Zingerle clarified in dire need.

Nico Schulz put the margin over the gate.

The ex-Hoffenheimer was one of four players that coach Edin Terzic rotated into the team.

Ex-world champion Mats Hummels was missing because of a knee injury.

Captain Marco Reus initially sat on the bench.

The Dortmund offensive game worked anyway.

After a pass from Haaland, it was Sancho who duped Zingerle and increased it to 2-0.

Is that it already?

Not at all, the guests by no means gave up.

Driven by trainer Steffen Baumgart, who showed full commitment on the sidelines despite pouring rain in a t-shirt, the Paderborn team braced themselves against a defeat with courageous fore-checking.

And the SCP had good chances.

Marwin Hitz, who was again between the posts instead of Roman Bürki, had to parry twice against Dennis Srbeny (25th) and Jamilu Collins (31st).

Can also falsified a Collins shot almost into his own goal (37th).

So the underdog contributed to a most entertaining game.

And that didn't change in the second round, when Srbeny (57th) and Chris Führich (72nd) missed further big chances.

In this phase, Dortmund only managed the result that was punished.

First Justvan met, then BVB took a penalty after Felix Passlack fouled Sebastian Schonlau, which Owusu converted.

But BVB still had their storm giant Haaland, who prevented worse.

Nevertheless it was a trembling game until the end, because Dortmund left the decision with good chances.
