So far, Union Berlin has been able to defend the top of the table. But because Bayern Munich defeated VfL Wolfsburg, the team now slipped to second place. And Bayern is back at the front.
Regardless of the fuss surrounding their injured goalkeeper Manuel Neuer, FC Bayern Munich has recaptured the lead in the Bundesliga from 1. FC Union Berlin with a commanding performance over long stretches. At the end of the 19th matchday, coach Julian Nagelsmann’s team won 4-2 (3-1) at VfL Wolfsburg on Sunday and pushed the Berlin side down by one point to second place with 40 points.
Kingsley Coman (9th minute/14th) with a double strike and Thomas Müller (19th) gave Bayern a 3-0 lead before Jakub Kaminski (44th) made it 1:3. After the yellow-red card for Joshua Kimmich (54th), Jamal Musial (73rd) increased to 4:1 after a fine individual performance. In the turbulent final phase, Matthias Svanberg (81st) reduced the lead to 2:4 for Wolfsburg. A subsequent hit by Yannick Gerhardt (84th) was disallowed for a foul after video evidence.
