Bundesliga Roundup, Matchday 6

Matchday 6 of the 2024/25 Bundesliga season featured exciting games and impressive performances. Here is a Bundesliga roundup of the weekend’s events.

Augsburg 2-1 Monchengladbach

Keven Schlotterbeck and Alexis Claude-Maurice each scored a goal, leading Augsburg to a tough 2-1 win against Borussia Mönchengladbach. This result further deteriorated Die Fohlen’s poor away record against Augsburg, with only one victory in their last 14 encounters.

Bochum 1-3 Wolfsburg

Bochum’s winless streak in the Bundesliga has now reached six matches after suffering a 3-1 loss at home to Wolfsburg, who broke their own three-game winless run. Bochum showed promise in the second half and might have equalized under different circumstances, but a late penalty converted by Wind secured all three points for Wolfsburg, allowing them to rise to 12th place. In contrast, Bochum has fallen to the bottom of the table as their troubling start to the season persists.

Bayer Leverkusen 2-2 Holstein Kiel

Bayer Leverkusen celebrated the second anniversary of Xabi Alonso’s appointment as manager with a disappointing 2-2 draw against newcomers Holstein Kiel, squandering a two-goal advantage and extending their search for a first clean sheet in the Bundesliga this season. Martin Terrier missed a late header over the Kiel goal, but Kiel managed to secure a valuable point, which may feel like a win given the situation, despite now being the first Bundesliga debutant in 13 years to remain winless in their first six matches.

Heidenheim 0-1 RB Leipzig

RB Leipzig has maintained the longest active unbeaten streak among top-tier teams in Germany by narrowly defeating Heidenheim 1-0 at the Voith-Arena, bringing their total to 17 consecutive Bundesliga matches without a loss (11 wins, 6 draws). Frank Schmidt’s team is the only Bundesliga club that Leipzig has a perfect record against in the top division, as the home side has not secured a victory in their head-to-head matchups at home since March 2015.

Omar Marmoush scored a last-minute equalizer in the 94th minute, allowing Eintracht Frankfurt to come back twice and secure a 3-3 draw against Bayern Munich at Deutsche Bank Park. This result extended Frankfurt’s unbeaten streak to seven games in all competitions.
