After Bayern Munich’s 3-0 success yesterday against Hoffenheim, the 17th day of the Bundesliga continued this afternoon with the Bavarians’ title competitor, Bayer Leverkusen. Deprived of Victor Boniface for several weeks, Xavi Alonso’s men snatched a precious victory on the Augsburg pitch 1-0. They can thank Palacios, the only scorer of the match in the 90th + 4 and regain a 4 point lead over the outgoing champion.
In the other matches of this multiplex, Eintracht Frankfurt achieved a nice coup by winning on the pitch of RB Leipzig (1-0). A goal from Kauff at the very start of the match was enough for Dino Toppmöller’s protégés, who overtook BvB in the standings to stand just behind their opponents of the day. Leipzig still has a 6-point mattress. Finally, Friborg and Union Berlin part with a 0-0 draw. At the same time, Mainz-Wolsburg and Cologne-Heidenheim ended 1-1.
The results of the 3:30 p.m. matches:
Mainz 1 – 1 Wolsfburg: Widmer (61st); Cerny (12th)
Cologne 1 – 1 Heidenheim: Selke (29th); Beck (55th)
Augsburg 0 – 1 Bayer Leverkusen : Palacios (90th+4)
Freiburg 0 – 0 Union Berlin
RB Leizpig 0 – 1 Eintracht Frankfurt : Knauff (7th)
