Without the summer signing of Adam Hlok, Leverkusen’s players beat Mainz 3-0 and are celebrating their first Bundesliga win of the year. Patrick Schick played most of the match in attack.
The hosts Burkhardt opened the scoring in Mainz in the 29th minute, who fired Palacios’ shot from the edge of the penalty area into his own net. After 10 minutes, Patrick Schick won the fight on the midfield, Diaby got the ball and made the second goal for Frimpong.
A few seconds later, the Netherlands international scored for a second time when defender Huck missed sending him into a solo break. Frimpong used his speed, circled goalkeeper Zentner and finished from a corner into the open goal again.
From the 77th minute, Bayer finished 10th thanks to Hinkapi, who received a second yellow card. His teammate Packer was also sent off in the fourth minute of regulation.
Duekhi kicked off the union’s big win in Gelsenkirchen six minutes after the whistle with a header. The host team, Schalke 04, equalized in the 31st minute through a penalty kick thanks to Boulter after a handball by Knoshi. Baker restored Al Ittihad’s lead with a penalty kick with the help of Thiawa. In the third minute of the first half, Haberer made the score 3:1 with a mid-range shot. Although Schwolow had the ball, he was unable to push it beyond the rolls.
Baker added his second goal shortly after the second half when the rebounding ball headed to the left post. Three minutes before the end of normal time, Michel managed to score 5-1 after a solo escape from the center line, and the same player closed the scoring in the 90th minute with a shot from a corner under the crossbar.
In the match between Leipzig and Wolfsburg in the fifth minute, Lacroix made a handball into his own net and the other Frenchman, Nkunka, easily took the penalty. The same player added the second goal in the 90th minute after a successful combination for the home team.
The match between Hertha Berlin and Dortmund was decided in favor of the visitors by one goal in the 33rd minute through Modesti. Borussia achieved its third victory and compensated for the previous collapse with Bremen, who advanced in front of him with two goals and lost.
