Borussia Dortmund conceded goals in the last four minutes to waste a 3-1 lead and settle for a 3-3 at St Pauli in their Bundesliga opener on Saturday.

The hosts scored with an 86th minute Danel Sinani penalty before captain Eric Smith rifled in an equaliser three minutes later to snatch a surprise draw for the Hamburg club.

"We knew we had to work very hard to get anything out of this game," Dortmund coach Niko Kovac told a press conference. "We did not succeed in matching our opponents’ physical game. We played too slowly. We did not play deep. They were very, very disciplined and it did not make things easy for us."

"But when you lead 3-1, then you cannot play a 3-3 even against this very good St Pauli team. We only managed to get one point and as Dortmund, you cannot be satisfied with this."
