With six games in the books, the top of the Bundesliga remains tight. FC Bayern with it's 4-1 victory over Werder Bremen (Ribbery and Robben) has moved to the top of the league gaining one point over Borussia Dortmund and Borussia Moenchengladbach. Although Dortmund played with a slight advantage one goal (Lewandowski) was not enough to carry the day. With the top three separated by goals and one point, the unofficial Herbstmeister (Fall Champion is wide open.
The remaining early Saturday games all ended in a draw. Mainz 05 fought back from a 2-0 deficit and what seemed to be a sure three points for Wolfsburg were swept away in the second half, leaving the factory team to settle for one.
In Friday's match Leverkusen defeated Hoffenheim 2-0 and into sixth place in the league. Despite Freiburg's draw against Hanover 96, the Badensler remain second last in the league and depending on the outcome of the Schalke 04/Augsburg game could find themselves bringing up the rear of the league.
VFB Stuttgart hosted1.FC Koeln in the Mercedes Benz Arena in the Saturday late game, which resulted in a 2-2 draw. Koeln and Mainz are one game in hand, which will be played on December 13th. Koeln for now leads Mainz by one point. Hamburg defeated Nuernberg 2-0 and now has a respectable 17 points, moving up four places in the table. Schalke 04 won a nailbiter against a spirited Augsburg team. Augsburg put on a much better performance than the 3-1 loss would indicate. Schalke has moved into 4th place on the table trailing Munich by just three points.
As the season nears the midway mark, the top of the table is getting tight.
