Hertha BSC made it six wins from six to lead the 2. Bundesliga, Mohamed Alì Zoma struck again for Nürnberg, and Hannover steadied themselves with a vital win. Wolfsburg thrashed Darmstadt, while 10-man St. Pauli salvaged a late point.
According to BuLi News, these were the standout stories as the division pauses for the international break.
Hertha came from behind at Dynamo Dresden. Patrice Čović’s deflected effort beat Marius Gersbeck on 10 minutes, before Jón Dagur Thorsteinsson levelled on 29 and then drove in the winner from range with 10 remaining. Hertha have 18 points and a two-point cushion, with four of their victories away.
Nürnberg stayed unbeaten with a 1-0 success at Karlsruhe. Javi Fernández slid a pass through for Zoma, who dinked over Hans Christian Bernat for his sixth league goal in as many games. They are second on 16 points.
Wolfsburg crushed Darmstadt 5-1. Alexander Bernhardsson put them ahead, Milan Smit equalised, Robert Glatzel restored the lead before half-time, Bernhardsson and Muhammed Damar extended it after the break, and Glatzel sealed it on 79. Wolfsburg are fourth on 11 points and 15 goals, Darmstadt bottom on four.
After a turbulent week, Hannover beat Bochum 2-1 under interim Lars Barlemann following Christian Titz’s dismissal and Sandro Wagner’s appointment. Stefán Teitur Thórdarson struck on 24 minutes, Marcel Hartel added a second before the break, Tom Meyer replied late but Leo Weinkauf held firm. Hannover are 10th on seven points.
St. Pauli drew 1-1 at Energie Cottbus despite Tomoya Andō’s 21st-minute red card. Justin Butler scored on 37, then Ricky-Jade Jones crossed for substitute Martijn Kaars to head in with 10 to play. St. Pauli are eighth on seven points, Cottbus seventh on eight.
After the hiatus, Heidenheim host Kaiserslautern and Braunschweig meet Kiel. The pick is Nürnberg against Wolfsburg, a clash of prolific attacks.
