Bundesliga Roundup, Matchday 10
Matchday 10 of the 2025/26 Bundesliga season showcased thrilling matches and remarkable displays. Here is the summary of this Bundesliga matchday.
Werder Bremen 2-1 Wolfsburg
Samuel Mbangula scored a dramatic last-minute winner, helping SV Werder Bremen come back from a goal behind to secure a 2-1 Bundesliga victory over VfL Wolfsburg. This loss was Wolfsburg’s seventh in their last eight matches across all competitions. The win represents Werder’s third consecutive home league triumph for the first time since April 2019, while Wolfsburg suffered their sixth league defeat of the season.
Union Berlin 2-2 Bayern Munich
Union Berlin missed out on their first-ever competitive win against Bayern Munich as the Bundesliga leaders came from behind to secure a 2-2 draw, ending Bayern’s 16-game winning streak. Although Bayern’s perfect record was broken, they will enter the international break with a six-point advantage at the summit, while Steffen Baumgart’s team ended the matchday in 11th place.
Hamburger SV 1-1 Dortmund
Hamburger SV earned a point by securing a 1-1 draw against a team that began matchday 10 in the upper half of the Bundesliga standings. They held the high-flying Borussia Dortmund to a draw, thanks to an impressive header from Ransford-Yeboah Königsdörffer in the 97th minute. Dortmund’s recent struggles to score more than one goal affected their performance here, but they likely won’t be too upset since none of the top three Bundesliga teams won this matchday.
Leverkusen 6-0 Heidenheim
Bayer Leverkusen thoroughly defeated FC Heidenheim, the Bundesliga’s lowest-ranked team, with a 6-0 victory at BayArena, marking their first time since January 2023 to achieve three consecutive home league clean sheets. Leverkusen easily secured the win, strengthening their place in the top five.
Hoffenheim 3-1 RB Leipzig
Hoffenheim secured only their second win in nine head-to-head matches against RB Leipzig, defeating them 3-1 at the PreZero Arena. This victory moved Hoffenheim up to 6th place, just three points behind Leipzig, who sit in 2nd place. It also marked Hoffenheim’s fourth consecutive league win and only their second home win of the season.
Monchengladbach 3-1 FC Cologne
Borussia Mönchengladbach secured their third straight victory in all competitions by beating FC Cologne 3-1 in the Rhine derby at Borussia-Park. This win boosts interim manager Eugen Polanski’s chances of being appointed as the club’s permanent head coach, succeeding Gerardo Seoane. With this result, Mönchengladbach climbed out of the relegation zone, while Cologne have only won one of their last five matches across all competitions, following a strong start to the season.
Freiburg 2-1 St Pauli
Freiburg secured their first Bundesliga victory since September by defeating St. Pauli 2-1 at home. St. Pauli have now suffered seven consecutive league defeats, managing to score only two goals during that stretch. With this win, Freiburg sits comfortably in the middle of the table, but they still trail the top six by 6 points. As a result, they might aim to leverage their strong performance in the UEFA Europa League as an alternative way to qualify for European competition next season.
Stuttgart 3-2 Augsburg
Stuttgart stretched their winning streak against Augsburg to six games as Deniz Undav’s late goal secured a 3-2 comeback win in the Bundesliga at the MHPArena. The home side claimed a thrilling victory that moves them into the top four, while a disappointed Augsburg stay 15th, only one spot above the relegation zone.
Frankfurt 1-0 Mainz
Frankfurt have now gone five games without a loss in all competitions, excluding penalty shoot-outs, after a cautious 1-0 Bundesliga win against FSV Mainz at Deutsche Bank Park. Once the home team took the lead, they never seemed likely to lose the three points, and this victory moves them up to seventh place in the standings. Meanwhile, Mainz continue to stay in the relegation zone.
