When I saw the goals especially the equalizer I felt Dortmund are back to do the needful but things changed in the second half and the pressure became too much for Dortmund and they couldn't stop the force of the Sundown team. I also agree with you that Dortmund are lucky in that encounter if not it would have been goodbye to this competition but all the same, I'd blame the South Africa team for their mistakes because they became too comfortable in the game after they got the first goal, a dtsw would have been a better result but it went Dortmund's way 3-4 was the final score which I'm not happy about because Dortmund are not in any way serious and they don't deserve to be the winner tonight.

Yeah, this match was total chaos! Borussia looked like they had it wrapped up at 4-1, but the way they let Mamelodi back in — that was worrying. Defensively, Dortmund just switched off. Mamelodi Sundowns actually finished the match with a higher xG than Dortmund, which says a lot. If the match lasted 5 more minutes, I’m not sure Dortmund would’ve held on. Still, they got the win, and Job Bellingham’s first goal was a bright spot. What a rollercoaster.

Dortmund are jokers from Germany and they could not control the game that should have been an easy one judging by their experience in competitions such as this. I love the force Memelodi Sundown came with to get those 2 goals and you're right, any additional minutes like the 5mins you said would have cost Dortmund the game because their defense wasn't as stable as they seem and if Memelodi Sundown had started the pressure when it was 1-2 they would have levelled the game before the half time whistle, this is to show that Dortmund are not a threat to any team in this competition and they are operating under luck as it seems, no wonder they can't match Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga.
