In the 68th minute, the Dutch forward Adriaan de Jong played a perfect pass to Martin Ødeman, who then found Adeyemi in space. Adeyemi took advantage of this opportunity and scored from close range, leveling the score at 2-2.
3. **Defensive Performance**: Both teams showed impressive defensive performances, though Dortmund's midfielders were particularly effective in preventing any easy chances for Hoffenheim. Their disciplined defense helped keep the score tied until the final whistle.
4. **Match Summary**: Despite losing the game, Hoffenheim did manage to get closer to the top of the table with a draw against Eintracht Frankfurt earlier in the season. This could be crucial for Hoffenheim as they look to bounce back quickly from this loss.
