Bayern Munich, the invincible Bundesliga side favoured by many betting websites to win the league, were tripped by Hoffenheim in Sinsheim. This gives the chasers below them with more opportunities to shrink the gap and make the title race ever closer.
The relegation battle is also in full steam with teams ranked 13 through 17 still in danger of joining Darmstadt in the drop.
Expect the next football games to be fiercer as every team across the table has something worth fighting for.
Borussia Dortmund 3-0 Hamburger SV
Hamburg played the brand of football that allowed them to get out of the bottom spot of the table, but it was simply impossible for them to beat Dortmund at the Signal-Iduna-Park. Quality goals from Gonzalo Castro, Shinji Kagawa and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang put the game away for the BVB.
Koln 1-0 Eintracht Frankfurt
Frankfurt cannot stop their slide out of the top spots after Koln took the game 1-0. Milo Jojic had some help from the post to convert his long shot to the only goal scored in the game. Frankfurt just cannot regain the form that helped them sit at the top of the table earlier this season.
Werder Bremen 3-0 Schalke 04
Bremen’s fantastic run continues as they pounded Schalke to the tune of 3-0. A penalty from Max Kruse and headers from Theodor Gebre Selassie and Maximilian Eggestein boost the hosts past Schalke and bring them closer to the Europa League spots.
Hoffenheim 1-0 Bayern Munich
Easily the most shocking result of the night, Hoffenheim beat Bayern Munich at home. Sure, the Bavarians may have fielded a weaker side, but that doesn’t excuse them from the poor showing they gave the fans who travelled with them. The win placed Julian Nagelsmann’s lads closer to the Red Bulls.
Borussia Monchengladbach 1-0 Hertha BSC
The score may be 1-0, but Borussia Monchengladbach outplayed Berlin to the level that a 3-0 result would not have been out of the question. Laszlo Benes scored the only goal, for the post denied his team of two more goals. Berlin need to find their form fast if they want to keep their Europe spot.
Mainz 05 2-3 RB Leipzig
The Leipzig attack was in clockwork motion when they overpowered Mainz: Marcel Sabitzer, Timo Werner and Naby Keita scored to give the Bulls a 3-1 lead by 90 minutes. However, it cannot be denied that their backline had two players carded and allowed a consolation goal from Yoshinori Muto.
Wolfsburg 0-1 Freiburg
Wolfsburg’s inconsistent form at home continues as Florian Niederlechner snuck a finesse shot past Koen Casteels to give the visiting Freiburg the three points. The road win also extends Freiburg’s undefeated away streak to four.
Augsburg 2-3 Ingolstadt
The duel between the two clubs in the drop zone had everything a neutral could ask for: plenty of goals and a daring comeback attempt. Down 3-0 by the 75th minute, the hosts made a daring comeback that threatened to steal the two points away from the desperate visitors. Unfortunately for Augsburg, the visitors milked the clock enough to prevent the comeback’s completion.
Darmstadt 98 0-2 Bayer Leverkusen
Darmstadtare looking relegation in the eye: they were at least 10 points from safety and have conceded five goals in their last two games prior to Leverkusen’s visit. Kevin Volland and Julian Brandt buried them deeper to relegation.
