FC Bayern Munich is on a run this season. They are not even unbeaten, they have won every single match they played in every competition. Their dominance in Bundesliga is very impressive. VFL Wolfsburg had no chance whatsoever on Tuesday and lost 0-3. Bastian Schweinsteiger (24th minute) had scored for the third time this season to put his club in the lead. Mario Mandzukic (57th, 65th) later set the score board right to reflect the superior performance of FCB.
Borussia Dortmund on the other hand are struggling a bit as they lost against Hamburg on matchday 4 and failed to bring the win home against Frankfurt despite a 2-0 lead at half time. Lukas Piszczek (24th) and Marco Reus (28th) had scored for BVB before Aigner (49th) and the once again strong playing Japanese player Inui (51th) equalized for Frankfurt.
Goetze who was sent to the field during half time put Dortmund back in the lead again in minute 53 but Bamba Anderson set the final result with his header for the 3-3 in minute 73. BVB have only one point out of the last two and are with eight points already seven behind leading FCB. Frankfurt stay unbeaten and continue to impress with their play as a recently promoted team.
Hamburger SV and TSG 1899 Hoffenheim both seem to have overcome their starting difficulties as they both booked points again after winning their first matches this season last matchday. Hoffenheim defeated Stuttgart easily with 3-0 while HSV failed to benefit from a dominant performance in Moenchengladbach.
Rafael Van der Vaart (23th) had scored the lead with a brilliant goal and Rudnevs (45th) put HSV back into leading position after Martin Stranzl´s (39th) equalizer. Stranzl was sent off the field after attacking Ilicevic in the box resulting in a penalty that was at least debatable. Stranzl attacked rather hasty but did not touch Ilicevic at all. However Van der Vaart hit the post and failed to secure the win for his team that continued to play well but did not get the finishing touch on one of their several opportunities. Dominguez (90th + 1) equalized the game seconds before the end.
Schalke 04 and Bayer Leverkusen won their matches without being in danger of losing for 90 minutes. S04 beat Mainz 05 with 3-0 and Leverkusen defeated FC Augsburg with 3-1. Hanover´s 4-1 home victory over 1. FC Nuremberg was never in danger as well. Hanover´s Leon Andreasen who just came from a two year injury break and impressed with his efforts was unlucky enough to torn his cruciate ligament to be once again sidelining for months.
The match of the two recently promoted teams Greuther Fuerth and Duesseldorf ended 2-0 for Fortuna. Duesseldorf is still unbeaten and without receiving a goal so far. Nine points and 4-0 goal difference is good enough for position five in chart.
Werder Bremen managed to turn the match around against SC Freiburg after being one behind and won 2-1 thanks to goals of Akpala (47th) and Aaron Hunt (59th).
