Berlin, Sep 4 (Ians) Ten-man Union suffered its first loss of the season after Benjamin Sesko delivered a late brace, sealing a 3-0 victory for Leipzig on the road at the close of the Bundesliga’s third round.
Both teams began the top clash with high motivation, exchanging attacks. Union’s Kevin Volland narrowly missed from distance, while Frederik Ronnow deflected Yussuf Poulsen’s shot over the bar. For the remainder of the first half, scoring opportunities were scarce as both defenses held strong, reports Xinhua.
The Red Bulls started the second half aggressively. Xavi Simons capitalised on Benjamin Henrichs’ square pass, driving the ball past Ronnow from the edge of the box into the top right corner. The situation deteriorated for the Eisernen, who hadn’t suffered a home defeat since February 2022, when Volland was sent off for a harsh foul on Mohamed Simakan.

Berlin, Aug 26 (Ians) Leipzig returned to winning ways while Stuttgart suffered its first loss after the Red Bulls came from behind with five second-half goals at the curtain raiser of the Bundesliga second round.
The Swabians caught a bright start on the road as Chris Fuhrich’s 17-meter hammer forced Leipzig goalkeeper Janis Blaswich into action with seven minutes gone, reports Xinhua.
Leipzig dominated possession but acted idealess in front of the target whereas Stuttgart created another clearcut opportunity through Serhou Guirassy, who nodded Fuhrich’s whipped cross narrowly wide at the half-hour mark.
Guirassy remained a constant in Stuttgart’s game as the striker opened the scoring five minutes later after shrugging off Leipzig defender Mohamed Simakan before tapping past Blaswich from inside the box.
Leipzig responded well and almost levelled the scores before half-time, but Stuttgart custodian Alexander Nubel was equal to Lois Openda’s dangerous close-range effort.

Berlin, May 21 (Ians) Bayern Munich dropped crucial points in the title race after Leipzig came from behind to clinch a stunning 3-1 away victory in the 33rd round.
The Bavarians gained the upper hand from the get-go and dominated possession against passive visitors from Leipzig.
The hosts came close with 18 minutes gone when Thomas Muller tested Leipzig goalkeeper Janis Blaswich from a central position on Saturday.
Bayern’s efforts paid off seven minutes later when Serge Gnabry made the most of Muller’s good build-up work to break the deadlock from the edge of the box into the near post corner, a Xinhua report said.
Three minutes later, Bayern should have made it two but for all that Jamal Musiala rattled only the outside of the netting from a tight angle.

Berlin, Oct 26 (Ians) Rb Leipzig consolidated the second spot in UEFA Champions League Group F after stunning Real Madrid 3-2 on Matchday 5 on Tuesday evening with goals from Josko Gvardiol, Christopher Nkunku and Timo Werner.

Berlin, March 3 (Ians) Jadon Sancho's sole goal was enough for Borussia Dortmund to edge Borussia Monchengladbach 1-0 in the German Cup quarterfinals.
Monchengladbach had the better start on the road as Marcus Thuram wasted Jonas Hofmann's square pass in the box with just two minutes gone on Tuesday, Xinhua news reports.
