Borussia Dortmund recovered a win in spectacular fashion on Saturday morning, as Robert Lewandowski pounced to secure three factors late in a victory over Stuttgart. Lukas Piszczek had given his part the advantage in the 2nd half, but the hosts never presented and were worth the pull thanks to Alexandru Maxim's equalizer, just for the Poland international to jump in the dying minutes. With both sides impressing in attack and less so at the rear, the result was an, action-filled first 45 minutes. BVB was the very first team to threaten the scoreline, as Marco Reus was given a opportunity when played through by Mario Gotze. The forward had just Sven Ulreich to defeat, but in attempting to round the keeper was refused by an outstretched leg. Reus was again the person who threatened many in orange. The youngster was played through with a cross from Lewandowski, and from large out tried an audacious processor to fool Ulrich. The owner was completely beaten, but breathed a of relief when it fell the wrong side of the post. Unable to transform before goal, Reus nonetheless played a big part in establishing the absent lead. The forward was fouled by the remaining touchline, and picked up the ball himself to whip in a free-kick. As was a fragile glancing header from Piszczek that sailed into the part of the web, the supply was pitch-perfect. Stuttgart protested, incensed that the foul was given in the first place; but it was to no avail, and it was Dortmund which took a somewhat lucky advantage to the period. Stuttgart continued to press, and again went agonizingly close thanks to Maxim. His free kick was turned onto the post by Martin Harnik, and with the jump Antonio Rudiger thought he'd equalized. It was not to be, however; Mario Gotze stumbled on the relief of his part with an excellent settlement off the line, somehow preserving BVB's slim lead. Despite the youngster's heroics, the tension was building to a tremendous amount for the visitors, and the leveller looked certain. With half an hour left to perform, the home team finally found the breakthrough. After impressing therefore much with the dead ball, Maxim showed what he could do in open play; striking with accuracy and taking down a free ball past Weidenfeller to create it 1-1. In the same way things were finding out about for Stuttgart, it absolutely was given a blow; Neidermayer's bloodthirsty challenge on Gotze acquired a second orange for the defender, indicating his side would have to play the final 20 minutes a guy down. Dortmund continued looking for the champion, and with eight minutes left was vindicated. A tired home protection was stretched by the overlapping Piszczek, and his low combination was created home by Lewandowski to separate Stuttgart minds. BVB continues four points free from Leverkusen as second place is occupied by it, whilst the unfortunate hosts remain in 12th. Follow GOAL.COM on Facebook
