VfB Stuttgart with three-packer Deniz Undav leaves RB Leipzig worried about their Champions League place. In a duel between two top teams and at the same time a false start to the new year, the Swabians celebrated an unexpected 5:2 (2:1) against disappointing guests on Saturday.

Coach Marco Rose’s Leipzig team suffered a defeat in their third game after the Bundesliga winter break. On Sunday, RB threatens to slip out of the top four. For Borussia Dortmund, just one point against VfL Bochum would be enough to move past.

In front of 52,100 spectators, the goals from Benjamin Sesko (32nd) and Lois Openda (55th) were clearly not enough for the guests. Stuttgart’s Undav (30th/56th/75th) was successful three times and this Saturday clearly pushed Stuttgart’s absence of top scorer Serhou Guirassy into the background.

2-0 lead at halftime: FC Bayern wins in Augsburg

An FC Bayern in a personnel emergency keeps the pressure on leaders Bayer Leverkusen in the Bundesliga championship race. After three groundbreaking decisions by the video referee, the Munich team won 3-2 (2-0) on Saturday and, after two previous away defeats in a row, were finally able to win again against their fearful opponents FC Augsburg. The final phase in particular was tough.

Joshua Kimmich’s midfield substitute Aleksandar Pavlovic with his debut goal in the 23rd minute and Alphonso Davies (45th + 5) gave Thomas Tuchel’s newly formed team a comfortable half-time lead. In front of 30,660 spectators in the sold-out Augsburg Arena, Harry Kane (58th) temporarily took the explosiveness out of the strange Bavarian neighborhood duel with two penalties with his first goal of the new year and his 23rd of this Bundesliga season.

Augsburg’s captain Ermedin Demirovic (52nd/90th + 4 penalty kicks) gave the home team hope for the longed-for coup against the German record champions with his ninth and tenth goals. Shortly before the end, national goalkeeper Manuel Neuer (88th) parried a self-inflicted penalty from Sven Michel, but was then powerless against Demirovic.

In the Bundesliga game in Wolfsburg: linesman injured

1. FC Köln earned an important away point in the relegation battle. Thanks to the 1:1 (1:1) draw at VfL Wolfsburg, the previous second-to-last in the table on Saturday improved to the relegation spot, at least for the time being. In front of 24,525 spectators, Faride Alidou gave FC the lead in the 38th minute. The American Kevin Paredes equalized just two minutes later (40th). As a result, both clubs remain winless in the new year.

The man of the day actually only came to the stadium as a spectator and then made his Bundesliga debut at the age of 32 – as fourth official. The former Wolfsburg young player Tobias Krull is goalkeeper and sporting director at MTV Gifhorn in the regional league. He spoke up during the first half when the stadium announcer made a loudspeaker announcement looking for someone in the audience with a referee license. A replacement was sought for the fourth member of the referee team, who stands on the sideline between the two coaches.

New signing Malatini scores on his debut: Werder beats Freiburg

Marvin Ducksch (9th) put the hosts in front with a penalty kick in front of 41,500 spectators in the sold-out Weserstadion. Before the break, Vincenzo Grifo (28th) also equalized for the guests with a penalty. In a strong second half, Bremen earned the victory with a 2-1 win from the outstanding Justin Njinmah (53′). Julian Malatini provided the emotional climax. The Argentinian newcomer scored the final score in stoppage time a few seconds after coming on as a substitute. Coach Ole Werner’s team has now been unbeaten in six games.
