Bundesliga Matchday 13: Roundup

In-form Gladbach were left empty handed after being overrun by an aggressive press from RB Leipzig that saw them score early and just before halftime. Timo Werner fired a low drive after just three minutes to put Dieter Hecking's side on the backfoot from the start. Werner doubled up when Yann Sommer's decision to come out backfired. The win moves Leipzig within a point of Gladbach.

Frankfurt's stunning run came to a shuddering halt on Sunday despite Luka Jovic's 10th of the season. Admir Mehmedi opened the scoring in the first half. After the break, Sebastian Haller thought he'd equalized but there was an offside in the build up. Daniel Ginczek (pictured) volleyed home moments later and despite Jovic's late effort, it was enough to to secure back-to-back wins for his side .

BVB's unbeaten run continues thanks to a goal in each half. Marco Reus scored from the spot after Dominique Heintz clipped Jadon Sancho's toe in the box. Jerome Gondorf's free kick rattled the bar and, after the break, Reus was denied by a strong save by Alexander Schwolow. Lukasz Piszczek was also denied by the woodwork, but then set up Paco Alcacer to score his 10th Bundesliga goal.

It was a tale of two second half penalties in Sinsheim as Hoffenheim were held by Schalke. Andrej Kramaric scored from the spot after a handball went in the home side's favor, despite protests. But Schalke struck back through a penalty of their own after Daniel Caligiuri was tripped, with Nabil Bentaleb doing the honors. The result means a second consecutive draw for Julian Nagelsmann's men.

The returning Serge Gnabry proved the hero for Bayern, who got back to winning ways in the Bundesliga. Gnabry scored in the first and the second half, either side of Yuya Osako heading in an equalizer that left Jerome Boateng and Manuel Neuer looking foolish. Bayern kept Bremen largely at bay in the second half, and although Max Kruse nearly nicked an equalizer Bremen were beaten.

In desperate need of some consistency, Stuttgart found it by picking up their second win in three games. The home side opened the scoring just before the break, with Anastasios Donis squeezing a low shot past Andreas Luthe and held on, thanks to a pair of strong saves in the second half from Ron-Robert Zieler, to lift themselves out of the relegation zone.

Hannover's poor form continued as they fell to visiting Hertha Berlin at home. Jordan Torunarigha headed home a corner just before the break to give Pal Dardai's side the lead. Vedad Ibisevic, in his 300th Bundesliga appearance, was at first denied a goal for being offside but later did get on the scoresheet, heading in to end the contest and send Hannover into 17th.

Mainz survived a late onslaught to pick up three huge points as they move into the top half of the Bundesliga. The goal came midway through the second half courtesy of Frenchman Jean-Philippe Mateta, whose crisp finish proved the difference. The defeat leaves Fortuna Düsseldorf in the bottom two, despite their heroics at the Allianz Arena a week ago.

As expected, the home supporters expressed their displeasure at the first Monday night game of the Bundesliga season, refusing to take their places in the north stand of Nuremberg's Max-Morlock-Stadion for the first half. Heavy rain made it tough going on the pitch: Kai Havertz put the visitors ahead on the half-hour mark, while Georg Margreitter pulled Nuremberg level in the 56th minute.
