Augsburg 1 Borussia Dortmund 1: Aubameyang salvages draw

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang rescued a point for Borussia Dortmund against Augsburg to keep them in the automatic Champions League places.

Borussia Dortmund's grip on an automatic Champions League place loosened a little on Saturday as they were held to a 1-1 draw by Augsburg in the Bundesliga.

Thomas Tuchel's side needed Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to rescue a point at the WWK Arena, the Gabon international cancelling out Alfred Finnbogason's opener.

However, with Hoffenheim beating Werder Bremen 5-3 the two sides are now level on 61 points with one game remaining - Dortmund needing to hold onto third to secure a safe passage into the group stages of next season's Champions League.
