Dortmund Aims for Consecutive Bundesliga Victories Against St. Pauli

Borussia Dortmund's coach Niko Kovac acknowledged the team's improvement but emphasized that they still have significant progress to make ahead of their Champions League clash with Lille. Following a recent 2-0 victory against St. Pauli, Kovac highlighted a tactical shift that helped the team secure back-to-back Bundesliga wins for the first time this season. He noted that the first half against St. Pauli posed challenges, but a switch to a four-man defense in the second half allowed Dortmund to gain control and score. Despite their recent successes, Kovac pointed out that the team is currently sitting in 10th place in the Bundesliga and risks missing out on European qualification. The upcoming match against Lille is crucial as they aim to leverage their home advantage at the Westfalenstadion. Kovac remains optimistic about the team's trajectory, stating they are more stable but still have room for improvement.
