Lucien FavreAssistant coach Terzic took charge of the Sunday afternoon training session and will remain at the helm until the end of the seasonBorussia Dortmund have sacked manager Lucien Favre following Saturday’s 5-1 loss at home to promoted VfB Stuttgart, the German Bundesliga club said Sunday. The Swiss, who had taken over in 2018 after arriving from France’s Nice, was seen as the ideal candidate to break Bayern Munich’s stranglehold on the Bundesliga title. But in his 2-1/2 seasons in charge he failed to win a German league or Cup title, and Saturday’s defeat was the heaviest since his arrival. Dortmund also failed to challenge Bayern last season. The side had also failed to win any of their last three league games, dropping to fifth in the league.
