Niko Kovač has reacted to Borussia Dortmund’s DFL-Supercup defeat against Bayern Munich.

Borussia Dortmund suffered defeat in their first competitive game of the 2026/27 season, losing 1-2 to Bayern Munich at Signal Iduna Park in the DFL-Supercup on Saturday night.

After the game, Borussia Dortmund coach Niko Kovač reflected on the defeat:

“It was an intense game from both teams. There were chances at both ends. We started the game well, but then we allowed Bayern to grow into the game with some mistakes, and we had to defend a lot," he said.

"Bayern had two more good chances towards the end of the first half. The second goal just before the break, in added time, was frustrating. If you go into half-time 1-0 down, you have a chance to come back in our stadium. The second half was really good. We took more risks, had more of the ball, looked more dangerous and were more aggressive.”
