Stuttgart leading in Leipzig after 45 minutes. 

[Tommy]

Oh fuck. 

[Michael]

Bochum have taken a surprise lead at home to Dortmund, Stoger the scorer for Bochum. Can they hold on to this lead? We shall have to wait and see.

[Michael]

Union Berlin, who took an early lead away to Darmstadt thanks to a goal by Gosens, have now had Aaronson sent off! So Union Berlin are now down to 10 men!

Darmstadt 0-1 Union Berlin

[Michael]

Darmstadt have just equalised through Mehlem!

Darmstadt 1-1 Union Berlin

[Tommy]

Heidenheim take the lead against Hoffenheim.  

[Michael]

Gosens scores his 2nd goal of the game, to help 10 man Union Berlin retake the lead away to Darmstadt!

Darmstadt 1-2 Union Berlin

[Michael]

10 man Union Berlin score a 3rd goal! This time it's Behrens who is the scorer! This is a great performance by Union who had a man sent off early in the match.

Darmstadt 1-3 Union Berlin

[Tommy]

lol Union have a player sent off and are like

[Michael]

Dortmund equalise through Malen! Malen collected a pass just outside the Bochum area, and he struck the ball low into the far corner of the net!

Bochum 1-1 Dortmund

[Michael]

Union Berlin score a 4th goal through their defender Doekhi this time. Union Berlin have played excellently today, especially when we consider that they had a man sent-off early in the game.

Darmstadt 1-4 Union Berlin

[Michael]

Jonas Wind has scored twice to turn the match between Koln and Wolfsburg on its head. Koln took the lead through ex-Wolfsburger Waldschmidt, but Wind's brace has given Wolfsburg the lead in Koln. Jonas Wind, who scored both Wolfsburg's goals in their opening game of the season last week, when they beat Heidenheim 2-0, continues his excellent start to the season. The Danish international has now scored 4 goals in Wolfsburg's opening two games of the Bundesliga season. He is the only Wolfsburg player to score so far this season.

Koln 1-2 Wolfsburg 

[Tommy]

Watched Gladbach vs. Leverkusen tonight. Leverkusen really play some beautiful football. They were a bit too much for Gladbach today. But i don't think Gladbach can compare to the likes of Leverkusen this season anyway. But they still showed some fighting spirit and didn't look totally lost, like they did under Farke last season. I think they can play an okay-ish season under the circumstances.

Dortmund is the team I follow in the Bundesliga. I can't follow Bayern as that would be like following Citeh.

They were absolutely pants against Bochum. This is the form that lost then the title last year.

Kobel kept them in the match.

Depends on how you look at it, if you mean both clubs are dominating their respective leagues currently than yes that's fair comparison. Otherwise Bayern and City aren't similar in the slightest, though.
