Leipzig already leaves two points. BVB uses this in the top game. Werder Bremen experienced the next disappointment in the relegation battle. No game is interrupted.

Berlin (dpa) - Bayern could watch the Saturday games of the Bundesliga in peace. The record champion only intervenes against FC Augsburg in the 25th matchday today (3:30 p.m. / Sky). The worst pursuer Leipzig failed in Wolfsburg, which Borussia Dortmund immediately took advantage of.

FAN CRISIS: In all Bundesliga stadiums there was again violent protests in the stands. On Saturday, however, especially against the German Football Association, which was partly tackled roughly. "Bribes, collective punishments, deaths in Qatar - whoever is the ugly grimace in football is clear," said the Olympic Stadium in Berlin, for example. Serious insults against the Hoffenheim patron Dietmar Hopp could not be seen this time, but there were allusions to it. "We apologize to all whores for connecting them to Mr. Hopp," said the Schalke fans' banners. There were no interruptions or even a break.

BAYERN-JÄGER: Whoever wins such a game positions himself as a potential master. Borussia Dortmund made an exclamation point with the 2-1 (1-0) in the top game at Borussia Mönchengladbach. BVB leads Bayern's pursuers into the next matchday. "It was a difficult game but it was an important three points for us," said Thorgan Hazard scorer at Sky. Coach Lucien Favre said: "It was very, very good." Meanwhile, Bayer Leverkusen stalked even closer to the top by 4-0 (2-0) against Eintracht Frankfurt. Bayer overtook Gladbach and is fourth in the table. "Before the season, we announced that we wanted to go to the Champions League spots. We're on it right now and we want to keep going," said goal scorer Kai Havertz.

DISAPPOINTMENT: Julian Nagelsmann looked rather served. "We don't have to talk about Bayern," said the RB Leipzig coach after the 0-0 win at VfL Wolfsburg at Sky. The Saxons again lost two important points in the end to the record champions. "We have to be in the top four, that's our goal. We don't need to speak from first place after the two draws," added Nagelsmann. Leipzig will play Tottenham Hotspur in the second leg of the second leg of the Champions League on Tuesday. The Nagelsmann team won the first leg 1-0 in London.

DESCENT FIGHT: For almost a half, everything looked like an enormously important victory for Werder Bremen. But not with the Hertha. As on matchday in Düsseldorf (3: 3), the Berliners turned up and drew. The 2: 2 (2: 1) helps Werder in the table cellar little. "It feels more like two lost points," said Kevin Vogt. If Fortuna Dusseldorf wins today (6:00 p.m. / Sky) at 1. FSV Mainz 05, the Bremen gap to the relegation place would increase to six points.

FRUST: FC Schalke 04 has been waiting for a win for seven Bundesliga games - far too long for the royal blue fans. Accordingly, the Schalke were disappointed after the toll 1: 1 (1: 0) against TSG Hoffenheim. "It was a game between two teams that did not have their best phase. But of the two teams, ours was the better one - unfortunately only 1-1," said coach David Wagner, who lacked six regulars against TSG: "We have one totally defensive approach chosen. We have no other right now because we simply don’t have the staff to do it. "
