Dortmund held at home by 10-man Fortuna

Borussia Dortmund conceded a late equaliser to draw 1-1 at home to 10-man Fortuna Duesseldorf on Tuesday as Bayern Munich\'s lead at the top of the Bundesliga leaders remains a commanding eight points. Bayern host second-placed Dortmund on Saturday in the clash of the Bundesliga titans and with Munich playing on Wednesday night at Freiburg, Dortmund missed both the chance to shorten the gap and earn their fifth-straight victory. Both Schalke 04 and Eintracht Frankfurt, in the pack chasing Bayern, suffered shock defeats and Bayern can go 11 points clear with a victory at Freiburg. Dortmund coach Jurgen Klopp left out midfield stars Mario Goetze and Ilkay Gundogan, plus defender Mats Hummels, who were all carrying knocks. The move back-fired as Stefan Reisinger equalised on 78 minutes from a superb cross by Australia\'s Robbie Kruse after Poland captain Jakub Blaszczykowski -- Kuba for short -- had put the defending champions Borussia ahead on 43 minutes. Duesseldorf were reduced to 10 men when ex-Dortmund midfielder Ivan Paurevic was shown an 87th-minute red card after earning a second booking when he brought down Borussia defender Lukasz Piszczek. Schalke suffered a 3-1 defeat at Hamburg as midfielder Maximilian Beister slammed home the hosts\' opener -- which was recorded at 117km per hour -- on 52 minutes, then helped set up Latvia striker Artjoms Rudnevs three minutes. Hamburg defender Dennis Aogo had earlier kept his side in the game when he cleared a shot off the line while Dutch striker Klaas-Jan Huntelaar netted a 79th-minute penalty at the second attempt. Hamburg midfielder Milan Badelj netted a 92nd-minute penalty to consign Schalke to their third defeat in their last five Bundesliga games as they remain third. Frankfurt stay fourth despite their 3-1 defeat at Mainz having been out-played and Bayer Leverkusen can jump to third from fifth if they win at Werder Bremen on Wednesday. Hanover 96 moved up into sixth, amongst the European places, with a 2-0 win at home to second-from-bottom Greuther Fuerth with goals by Senegal striker Mame Diouf and Swiss defender Mario Eggimann. In Wednesday\'s other games, Borussia M\'gladbach are home to VfL Wolfsburg, Augsburg are at VfB Stuttgart v Augsburg while Nuremberg host Hoffenheim
