The match was a thrilling affair from start to finish, with both teams creating numerous scoring chances. Dortmund, however, proved to be the more clinical side, taking an early lead through Jadon Sancho. Erling Haaland doubled Dortmund's advantage before the break, putting Leipzig on the back foot.

Leipzig came out with renewed vigor in the second half and managed to pull one back through Yussuf Poulsen. However, Dortmund refused to be denied and restored their two-goal lead through Marco Reus. Raphael Guerreiro sealed the victory with a fourth goal in the dying minutes, sending the Dortmund faithful into raptures.

The win was particularly emotional for Dortmund's long-serving captain, Łukasz Piszczek, who broke down in tears after the final whistle.

Dortmund's victory was a testament to their resilience and determination, having overcome a difficult season marred by injuries and inconsistent results. The DFB-Pokal triumph provides a much-needed boost for the club and their fans as they look ahead to the upcoming season.
