German Bundesliga
German conference with Bayern, Leverkusen and BVB
Bayern Munich have continued their winning streak and secured their fifth consecutive win without conceding a goal. The Bavarians won 1:0 (1:0) at FC St. Pauli in the Bundesliga on Saturday and extended their lead at the top of the table to six points for the time being.
Bayer Leverkusen only managed a 1:1 (1:0) draw at bottom-of-the-table Bochum. Borussia Dortmund were unable to end their away woes with Marcel Sabitzer and lost 1:3 (1:2) at Mainz.
Musiala lets Bayern celebrate
A stroke of genius from Jamal Musiala saved Bayern from an unpleasant surprise at the Millerntor. In the first Bundesliga clash between the two friendly clubs in more than 13 years, he paved the way to an ultimately deserved victory with his dream goal from a good 28 meters in the 22nd minute. It was the first time this season that the German record champions, for whom Konrad Laimer came on in the 70th minute, had scored fewer than three goals away from home and missed out on the record. For the time being, they have a six-point lead over their closest rivals RB Leipzig, who host Borussia Mönchengladbach this evening.
Champions Leverkusen suffered their next setback four days after the Champions League defeat in Liverpool (0:4). Coach Xabi Alonso's team had to settle for a 1:1 (1:0) draw at bottom club VfL Bochum. Substitute Koji Miyoshi (88') equalized the visitors' early lead through Patrik Schick (19') late on and gave coach Dieter Hecking, who last sat on the bench as head coach at Borussia Mönchengladbach in the Bundesliga in May 2019, a successful comeback.
Dortmund's away woes continue
Dortmund remain a welcome guest on away pitches and still only have one point after five away games. BVB were outnumbered after Emre Can was shown a red card for rough play after 27 minutes and conceded three goals through Jae-Sung Lee (36'), Jonathan Burkardt (45+3) and Paul Nebel after an assist from ÖFB team player Philipp Mwene (54'). Serhou Guirassy (40') scored for Dortmund from the penalty spot to make it 1-1. Dortmund dropped to seventh place and criticism of coach Nuri Sahin is likely to increase.
Werder Bremen defeated Holstein Kiel 2:1 (1:0) late on with Romano Schmid and Marco Friedl (until 78). Thanks to Oliver Burke's header in the 89th minute, Werder celebrated their first home win of the season.
