German Bundesliga
Conference with Leverkusen and BVB from 3.30 p.m. LIVE
On the sixth matchday in the German Bundesliga, champions Bayer Leverkusen only managed a 2-2 draw against newly promoted Holstein Kiel. Coach Xabi Alonso's side had already taken a two-goal lead. Dortmund, meanwhile, lost 2-1 to Union Berlin after a poor first half. Freiburg won 1-0 at Bremen and Wolfsburg 3-1 at Bochum.
Four days after the 7:1 gala in the Champions League against Celtic Glasgow, Borussia Dortmund suffered a defeat in the German Bundesliga. BVB were beaten 2:1 away to Union Berlin on Saturday, leaving them on just ten points after six rounds. Bayer Leverkusen have one point more after a disappointing 2-2 home draw against Holstein Kiel. Wolfsburg won 3-1 at Bochum, while Bremen lost 1-0 at home to Freiburg.
One half costs three points
Dortmund fell behind in Berlin through a penalty from Kevin Vogt (26'), Yorbe Vertessen made it 2-0 shortly before the break. Black & Yellow improved after the break, but could do no more than score the equalizer through Julian Ryerson (62'). Christopher Trimmel played through for the winners, Leopold Querfeld was substituted in the 60th minute. Marcel Sabitzer came on for the visitors in the 76th minute.
Benedikt Pichler started in the 46th minute to help promoted Holstein Kiel snatch a point from Leverkusen. The defending champions clearly dominated the game at first and looked like certain winners early on after goals from Victor Boniface (4th) and Jonas Hofmann (8th). However, the sloppiness then crept in, Kiel became more dangerous and managed to equalize thanks to Mark Geschwill (45.+5) and Fiete Arp (69./penalty). Bayer's final offensive remained ineffective.
Friedl the tragic figure
Marco Friedl was the tragic figure in Werder's home defeat against Freiburg. The ÖFB returnee deflected a relatively harmless shot from Ritsu Doan into his own goal (75'). Friedl and Schmid played through, Marco Grüll came on in the 79th minute. At the other end, Junior Adamu and Philipp Lienhart played the full distance, with Michael Gregoritsch on the bench.
Patrick Wimmer at least got some match practice ahead of the upcoming Nations League games. The ex-Austrian was brought on by coach Ralph Hasenhüttl in the 73rd minute of VfL Wolfsburg's 3-1 win in Bochum.
