The year has changed, but the refrain remains the same. As often since August, the Bundesliga weekends are punctuated by the goals of Marmoush, the exploits of Jonathan Burkadt, and the defeats of Kiel and Bochum. A standard respected for this first outing of the year 2025. Traveling to Sankt Pauli, Frankfurt achieved a painful success, but oh so important. As usual, the salvation came from Omar Marmoush, author of his 14th goal (perhaps his last before joining Manchester City?) thanks to the help of a very lax opposing defense (32nd, 0-1 ). This goal allows Hugo Ekitike’s teammates – not on his best day – to maintain their 3rd place. They hadn’t won in 5 games.
At the same time, Mainz took bottom place Bochum (2-0) thanks to a double from their providential man Jonathan Burkadt (23rd, 69th), already a scorer 12 times this season in the Bundesliga. The German international maintains the wild hope of seeing Mainz in C1 next year, since the German club is provisionally 4th. Wolfsburg, for its part, got the better of Hoffenheim (0-1). It was Algerian international Mohamed Amoura who made the decision after half an hour of play for his 6th goal in the league. Last year’s sensation, Heidenheim put Union Berlin through its paces (2-0) thanks to Kratzig and Beck, while Friborg scared itself, but secured the essentials by beating Kiel 3- 2.
