Experiencing two defeats in a row is actually a bad result and of course Dortmund must be able to rise to improve it as we know that Dortmund will face Mönchengladbach in Week 12 of course they must be able to win and be consistent again to be on the winning track again to secure their position is not far from the top four of the Bundesliga standings.
Moreover, the defeat against Bayern in the previous match, where Dortmund actually lost 4-0, this must have really hurt them. Because after all, Dortmund is often closely associated with its rivalry with Bayern. Previously they also experienced only weri results. This time, Dortmund's match results in the Bundesliga were not very good. Not to mention those in UCL who are in the tightest group with competition so they may not be able to continue to round 16 or not.
Indeed, currently there are still many opportunities to rise again and compete again in the top standing with Bayern. But of course they need stronger effort and consistency to win. Meanwhile, if Dortmund no longer continues to UCL, it could be that they focus more on the Bundesliga. So they can really optimize. unless they feel hopeless.
