6th matchday
Berlin (dpa) – Is the Bundesliga threatened with boredom again? After defending champion FC Bayern Munich’s victory in Fürth, the competition failed in lockstep. Borussia Dortmund loses the derby in Mönchengladbach, VfL Wolfsburg stumbles in Hoffenheim.
The first pursuer is now Bayer Leverkusen. With the Rhinelander, a teenager again demonstrated his outstanding abilities. The rebounded runner-up RB Leipzig celebrates a runaway victory against Hertha BSC, which has to switch back to crisis mode. The motto of the two Sunday games is reparation and goodbye.
Unpleasant return: Lots of whistles and a defeat on top of that – the return of Borussia Dortmund coach Marco Rose to his old place of work was completely disappointing. He had expected the cool reception. “You can be prepared for a few things,” he told the TV broadcaster Sky, but nevertheless emphasized: “I had two excellent years here. I was in the dressing room and met so many people that I was looking forward to. ” He had imagined the sporting course differently. In addition, striker Erling Haaland and captain Marco Reus were also out.

Principle decision: With the yellow-red card for the Dortmund Mahmoud Dahoud because of a wave, the referee wanted to set a “sign”. “In the first scene we had Guerreiro a few minutes beforehand, who waves it aside. I made it clear to him that I didn’t want this behavior on the pitch. We deserve a minimum of respect, “said Deniz Aytekin and continued:” It is made so natural that it is not a bad thing. Of course you can say: it’s tough. Certain behavior on the pitch must be prevented. Not everyone has a bye. All in all, this disrespectful dismissal was too much for me. ”
Leipzig liberation = Berlin humiliation: 6-0 – reads wonderfully from RB Leipzig’s point of view. Finally the second win this season under new coach Jesse Marsh. Leipzig’s Swedish offensive ace Emil Forsberg spoke of the correct answer, “because the last few weeks have not been easy”. The result was “an announcement”, emphasized Forsberg’s Danish team-mate Yussuf Poulsen, “mainly because we could have scored more goals”. An announcement to those who are still ahead of the runner-up at the moment. So none to Hertha, whose upswing subsided after two victories against promoted players. “A shitty day,” said Davie Selke: “That was from A to Z, from back to front not good from us.” The Hertha attacker sent an apology to the fans afterwards. It will be seen whether words in the capital at the club with the high standards will also be enough for coach Pal Dardai, who has already offered his resignation this season.
Clouded joy at the other capital club: A late goal, a victory, unbeaten for the 20th time at home in the An der Alten Försterei stadium. There is joy. But this time very limited. The pictures of Timo Baumgartl, who, according to Union Berlin trainer Urs Fischer, was also briefly unconscious, should not be forgotten by the Köpenicker anytime soon. The 25-year-old defender suffered a severe concussion in a clash with Arminia Bielefeld’s Fabian Klos.
The record teenager: It was a gate of greater importance. Thanks to Florian Wirtz’s goal, Bayer 04 Leverkusen overtook VfL Wolfsburg in the table and the shooter for the 1-0 win for the Werkself from Rhein against Rheinhessen of 1. FSV Mainz 05 was also the goal, the Wirtz to the youngest Bundesliga Player with ten goals made. He was 18 years and 145 days old when he scored on Saturday. So far, 2014 world champion Lukas Podolski (18 years and 353 days / 2004) has held the record. “He probably writes history week after week,” said keeper Lukas Hradecky about Wirtz.
Reparation: Newcomers VfL Bochum want to show a reaction after the 7-0 debacle at German champions FC Bayern Munich. “We can’t make it up to you. But we want to forget about the game and show a different face, ”said VfL coach Thomas Reis before the home game against VfB Stuttgart (3:30 p.m. / DAZN), which had been unsuccessful since the 5-1 win against Greuther Fürth on the first match day. After three defeats in a row, VfL has slipped to a relegation zone with three points. Stuttgart are also under pressure after their weak start to the season. “It wasn’t all so rosy the last few weeks. It was a mess, “said coach Pellegrino Matarazzo:” It’s about showing a reaction. ” VfB have been without a win for four games.
Taking leave: SC Freiburg plays one last time in the Dreisamstadion, which is sold out against FC Augsburg with 14,500 spectators (5.30 p.m. / DAZN). “We have to be careful because a lot of anecdotes are extracted and there is a lot of nostalgia, but we have a Bundesliga game,” warned coach Christian Streich, who himself has a 25-year history with the stadium. As a farewell, the sports club could also set a club record. There have only been five unbeaten games at the start of the season in Bundesliga history (2000 and 2004) – never more so far.
