FC Bayern Munich has once again taken over the top of the Bundesliga table with a shooting festival. The Munich team won 7-0 over VfL Bochum, with Harry Kane scoring three goals in the decisive victory. The record champions are now one point ahead of VfB Stuttgart, RB Leipzig and TSG Hoffenheim and three points ahead of Leverkusen. Bayer awaits promoted team 1. FC Heidenheim on Sunday and could displace Munich again with a big win.
Third Bundesliga win for Dortmund
TSG Hoffenheim secured themselves in the top group of the Bundesliga with a 2-0 win over Champions League participants Union Berlin on matchday 5. Cup winners RB Leipzig won 1-0 at Borussia Mönchengladbach. Runner-up Borussia Dortmund achieved their third win of the season against VfL Wolfsburg with a 1-0 win. The runner-up remains unbeaten and is now two points behind Munich.
According to sports director Fabian Wohlgemuth, no one stands out in the surprise team VfB Stuttgart. “You can no longer argue away the good start,” said the 44-year-old after the success against the newly promoted SV Darmstadt 98, who are still without a win. “But the fact remains that we have things under control and that everyone is staying on the ground. There are still 29 match days to play. We’re definitely sticking with ourselves.” Once again, striker Serhou Guirassy was the key to success for the Swabians in their third home win of the season at the third attempt with an assist for Enzo Millot’s equalizer and two goals of his own.
