Bundesliga Roundup: Bayern come from behind to draw; Borussia Dortmund crushed by Stuggart

Current Bundesliga Champions Bayern Munich managed to draw against Union Berlin having been pegged back earlier for the fifth consecutive league game to rescue a 1-1 draw, but still held on to the top spot in the Bundesliga ahead of RB Leipzig on goal difference.

The hosts shocked the champions in the sixth minute with Grischa Proemel’s glancing header from a corner.

However, the Bundesliga’s top scorer Robert Lewandowski rescued his side after he scored to level as both sides shared a point each.

Bayern have won only one of their last four league games this season and it would have been another loss if Lewandowski hadn’t tapped in a Kingsley Coman’s cross for his 13th goal of the season on his 200th appearance for the club.

Meanwhile, RB Leipzig moved second on the Bundesliga standing as a 2-0 victory over Werder Bremen on Saturday ensured they remain 2 points ahead of Bayer Leverkusen.

Buoyed by their 3-2 midweek win over Manchester United that earned them a place in the Champions League last 16, the hosts dominated Werder from the start.

Leipzig, who have now won all six of their home games this season, earned a penalty in the 26th minute and Marcel Sabitzer converted it.

Dani Olmo completed a quick Leipzig passing move with a clever dribble on the edge of the box and his low shot in the 41st gave them a two-goal cushion.

Borussia Dortmund 1-5 Stuggart: Promoted Stuttgart scored three times in 10 minutes to crush hosts

Bundesliga Roundup

Newly promoted Bundesliga side Stuggart shocked the daylight out of football fans around the world with a 5-1 demolition of Borussia Dortmund on Saturday to maintain their unbeaten run on the road this season.

Led by American coach Pellegrino Matarazzo, Stuttgart ran riot over the Dortmund defence in their best performance of the season so far.

However, for Dortmund, it was the worst defeat under coach Lucien Favre, who is in his third season at the club.

Stuttgart converted a 26th-minute penalty having started strongly and Silas Wamangituka sent keeper Roman Buerki the wrong way with his spot-kick.

Dortmund seems to be struggling without injured top striker Erling Haaland but managed to draw level when Giovanni Reyna latched on to a pinpoint Raphael Guerreiro cross to chip the ball over the Stuttgart keeper.

But a mistake by Guerreiro on the edge of the box in the 53rd sent Wamangituka through for his seventh goal of the campaign.

Philipp Foerster, in his second start for Stuttgart, made it 3-1 on the hour before teenager Tanguy Coulibaly added another goal three minutes later from a Jude Bellingham mistake, with Dortmund’s defence in complete disarray.
