That win means that Dortmund close the gap at the top to seven points again and pull away slightly from the teams sitting below them in the table. Next up for them is a match against Hertha Berlin. Paderborn are still at the bottom of the table and nine points from safety. Their next match is another tricky test as they travel to RB Leipzig.
Dortmund dominated the second half in style as they beat Paderborn 6-1. Hazard opened the scoring after Can's cross was deflected into his path by Zingerle. Sancho scored a hat-trick on his return into the starting line-up, with Hakimi and Schmelzer adding the other two goals to the tally.
