Marco Reus insisted Borussia Dortmund don't have a mentality problem after he and his teammates conceded a late equaliser to draw 2-2 with Eintracht Frankfurt today.

Dortmund's mentality was already discussed in the media following their 1-3 loss to Union Berlin at the end of August, and Reus is sick and tired of claims that BVB are lacking the right attitude.

"This is really getting on my nerves," Marco Reus told Sky after today's 2-2 draw with Eintracht Frankfurt and added:

"Don't come to me with your mentality bullshit. It's the same crap every week. This isn't about mentality, but about proper defending and knowing that if you lead 2-1 at Frankfurt, they can always come back.

"We should have done better in the last five minutes. But it has nothing do with mentality," he said.

Dortmund sit third in the Bundesliga after today's draw - three points behind league leaders RB Leipzig.
