Overview
- Karim Adeyemi’s 20th‑minute strike gave Borussia Dortmund a 1:0 win over Wolfsburg, keeping BVB unbeaten on 10 points as Nico Schlotterbeck returned from a long knee layoff and Christian Eriksen debuted for VfL.
- Borussia Mönchengladbach snatched a 1:1 at Bayer Leverkusen through Haris Tabakovic in the 90+2 minute, denying the hosts after Malik Tillmann’s opener and marking Eugen Polanski’s first match as Gladbach interim coach.
- Eintracht Frankfurt lost 3:4 at home to Union Berlin, with Oliver Burke scoring a hat-trick and Union coach Steffen Baumgart sent off late; TV images showed him briefly raising a middle finger, which he later downplayed after protesting a VAR-checked penalty.
- The Frankfurt match began after a brief delay due to paper thrown by home fans, and Eintracht’s late rally through Can Uzun and Jonathan Burkardt’s penalty could not erase early defensive lapses.
- Regional roundup: OSC Rheinhausen drew 30:30 with HSG am Hallo Essen in a match marred by a red card for Dennis Szczesny, a scoreboard failure and an ambulance departure for Niklas Rolf, while VeRuKa fell 28:35, Hertha BSC U23 lost 2:7 to Lok Leipzig, and VfL Wildeshausen won 6:0 to remain the Bezirksliga’s only unbeaten side.
