Bundesliga: chasers win, Bayern unable to extend their lead | OneFootball

The chase for Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga continues.

Borussia Dortmund, Leipzig, and Bayer Leverkusen won their matches on the morning of this Saturday (27th) and did not allow the leader to further extend its lead.

BVB remains unbeaten and in this round, they overcame Mainz away from home even with the top scorer Guirassy missing the team at the last minute.

The team led by Nico Kovac is just two points below Bayern in the standings.

The third place is Leipzig, who overcame Wolfsburg away with the minimum score, with an assist from the Brazilian Rômulo.

Check out the highlights of the day in the Bundesliga so far:

Mainz vs Borussia Dortmund

Dortmund had to take the field without Guirassy, who felt a physical problem during the warm-up.

The top scorer was replaced in the starting lineup by Brandt, who was decisive for BVB's victory.

He assisted both goals for the team, one scored by Svensson and the other by Adeyemi.

The German forward also stood out, even forcing a red card for goalkeeper Zentner by drawing a foul in a counterattack.

St. Pauli vs Bayer Leverkusen

St. Pauli dominated the game in shots and corners.

But Leverkusen was more efficient in front of the goal and left the field with all three points, even being pressured by the home team.

Wolfsburg vs Leipzig

The Brazilian Rômulo contributed to another Leipzig goal this season.

This time, he assisted Bakayoko to open the scoring early in the match.

Leipzig also missed a penalty in the final stretch of the match with Baumgartner, but the team held on to the one-goal lead.

Heidenheim vs Augsburg

After five defeats in the first five rounds, Heidenheim finally "debuted" in the Bundesliga.
