Overview
- Borussia Dortmund beat VfL Wolfsburg 1:0 on Karim Adeyemi’s 20th‑minute strike, staying unbeaten and in second place as Nico Schlotterbeck returned from a long knee layoff.
- Wolfsburg’s high‑profile signing Christian Eriksen made his Bundesliga debut as a second‑half substitute but had little influence on the match.
- Borussia Mönchengladbach earned a 1:1 draw at Bayer Leverkusen in interim coach Eugen Polanski’s debut, with Haris Tabakovic equalising in the 90+2 minute after an earlier Castrop goal was ruled offside via VAR.
- Eintracht Frankfurt fell 3:4 at home to Union Berlin, with Oliver Burke scoring three times after Ilyas Ansah’s opener; Nathaniel Brown, Can Uzun and Jonathan Burkardt (penalty) scored for Eintracht.
- Steffen Baumgart received a red card late in Frankfurt, with TV images showing a brief middle‑finger gesture; he said it was not directed at anyone, accepted the dismissal, will be suspended against HSV and could face further DFB action.
