In stoppage time of the second half vs. VfB Stuttgart, Borussia Dortmund midfielder Gio Reyna scored a huge goal to put his team up 3–2.
The goal, a strike off a rebound inside the box, was Reyna’s first goal since February 4 for Dortmund and his sixth of the season overall. The score snapped a five-game goal-less streak, Reyna’s longest since the World Cup, when he went 11 straight games without a goal for both Dortmund and the USMNT in Bundesliga matches, Champions League games and international friendlies.
Reyna has now played in 16 total games for Dortmund this year and his six goals are now tied for third on the team.

Although Reyna gave Dortmund the lead in the second minute of an eight-minute stoppage time, VfB Stuttgart managed to tie right before time expired to earn the draw. The draw is a tough result for Dortmund, who is fighting for the top spot in the Bundesliga while Stuttgart is one of the three worst teams in Germany this year.
