Alexander Meyer - Heroic for winMeyer registered five saves and allowed one goal in Sunday's 3-1 win against Eintracht Frankfurt.
ImpactMeyer actually was left behind the ball for large portions of the match as Frankfurt had their chances to score, but the backup was brilliant throughout. He stopped five of the six shots he faced and kept Dortmund sniffing around the top of the table heading into the international break. Gregor Kobel (undisclosed) will hope the extra two weeks to recover is enough to get back to full fitness.

Donyell Malen - Assists on lone chanceMalen assisted once to go with two shots (one on goal), four crosses (zero accurate) and one chance created in Sunday's 3-1 victory versus Eintracht Frankfurt.
ImpactMalen got the start on the right wing, and while he couldn't keep his goalscoring form going he still contributed with an assist during the win. With Karim Adeyemi fit once more and Jadon Sancho in the first team there's plenty of options on the wing for rotation during what will be a busy Bundesliga run in. Still if Malen can keep this form going he will guarantee he stays in the starting XI.

Julian Brandt - Assists in winBrandt assisted once to go with two shots (zero on goal), 13 crosses (three accurate) and eight corners in Sunday's 3-1 victory against Eintracht Frankfurt.
ImpactBrandt was on the pitch for 85 minutes and was causing issues every time he was on the ball. He sent in 13 crosses, five of which came from open play and found an assist. The attacking midfielder continues to be a quietly excellent creative force in the Bundesliga and is on pace for yet another brilliant season in the first team. Brandt remains one of the top options in the team moving forward.

Mats Hummels - Nets rare goalHummels scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Sunday's 3-1 victory versus Eintracht Frankfurt.
ImpactHummels found the back of the net in a rare goal for the center-back. Hummels used to enjoy the odd foray forward, but in recent years he's been a far more defensive member of the backline. Still this goal is a nice boon for Hummels, even if he isn't worth chasing for any sort of coming offensive boom after the break.

Emre Can - Sent off SundayCan picked up a red card and was sent off in the 85th minute of Sunday's 3-1 victory against Eintracht Frankfurt. He scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) before his r...
ImpactCan was shown a straight red card and given his marching orders after scoring during Sunday's win. The defensive midfielder will be suspended for at least one match on the other side of the international break. The goal was a nice boon even if the red card stung for Can, who will likely be replaced by the recently returned Salih Ozcan.

Karim Adeyemi - Nets SundayAdeyemi scored one goal to go with three shots (one on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Sunday's 3-1 win over Eintracht Frankfurt.
ImpactAdeyemi was back in the starting XI and back in the goals from the left wing during Sunday's win. Adeyemi and Jadon Sancho will see plenty of rotation as they compete for the same spot on the left wing. Both are dangerously pacey options and both could trouble any defensive unit. Adeyemi's goal could keep him in the starting XI after the break.

Kevin Trapp - Stops twoTrapp had two saves and allowed three goals in Sunday's 3-1 loss versus Borussia Dortmund.
ImpactTrapp faced five shots and stopped two to come away with a comprehensive defeat. It was always going to be difficult for Trapp against an in-form Dortmund side and it was as tough as expected. Still it wasn't a horrific showing from the Frankfurt team, as they continue to try and hold on to a place in the European spots.
