For the ambitious Leverkusen-based team, things went according to plan in Frankfurt when Nadiem Amiri hit the lead in the tenth minute with a heel trick.

But then the hosts turned up and came up with some chances.

Amin Younes equalized (22nd), then Bayer defender Edmond Tapsoba also scored his first own goal in the Bundesliga (54th).

While Bremen is in more and more distress, Union is established higher up.

The Gladbachers had to put in a lot of effort for the expected success in Bielefeld.

Even before the break, Borussia had plenty of good opportunities, but it wasn't until the 58th minute that Breel Embolo released his team with the only goal of the day.

Everything was already clear when changing sides in Sinsheim.

Baptiste Santamaria with his first Bundesliga goal (7th), Vincenzo Grifo with a penalty kick (34th) and an own goal by Kasim Adams (42nd) gave Freiburg the clear lead.

The 1: 3 by Ihlas Bebou (58th) did not bring a turnaround.

The game in Cologne was really tough.
