Dani Olmo’s Brace Secures RB Leipzig at Hoffenheim

It’s Three Goals in Three Games for Dani Olmo

Dani Olmo’s quickfire brace secured RB Leipzig victory at Hoffenheim. The result sees Leipzig maintain their excellent unbeaten run and leave them on the verge of securing a place in the top four.

It’s a disappointment for Hoffenheim who slump to defeat in Matthias Kaltenbach’s first game in temporary charge. The game’s major turning point arrived in the opening ten minutes.

Hoffenheim thought they were getting a penalty when Peter Gulasci fouled Munas Dabbur. However, as they were about to take it, VAR intervened and deemed there was a handball in the build-up from Christoph Baumgartner.

Hoffenheim’s anger soon carried when RB Leipzig took the lead just moments later courtesy of Olmo. The Spanish playmaker finished off a terrific counter-attack slotting past Oliver Baumann. It soon got better for RB Leipzig and Olmo as they sealed three points just two minutes later.

From a similar position to his first, Olmo slotted past Baumann to ensure Leipzig extend their unbeaten run to twelve games. Hoffenheim battled hard but could not find a way past Gulasci who was outstanding for Julen Naglesmann’s team.

RB Leipzig remain third and are on the verge of securing their place in the Bundesliga top four. Hoffenheim stay seventh but their four-match unbeaten run comes to an end.

As Dani Olmo Fired Leipzig to Victory, the Basement Battle Defeat Left Paderborn on the Brink

Paderborn extended their winless run to twelve games after losing the basement battle to Werder Bremen. The visitors were in rampant form as they put five past the Bundesliga’s bottom club. The heavy defeat leaves Paderborn on the brink of relegation. Bremen meanwhile secure a third consecutive away win something they have not done for over a decade.

The visitors were flying and should have opened the scoring when they were given a penalty following Jamilu Collins handball. Yuya Osako saw his penalty saved by Lucas Zingerle but the visitors did find the breakthrough moments later courtesy of Davy Klaasen who planted a header into the corner.

By half time, the visitors were comfortably three goals up thanks to Klaasen and Osako who made up for his earlier miss. Bremen continued to dominate after the break and soon added a fourth courtesy of Max Eggestein.

The home side pulled one back through Abdelhamid Sabiri, but they conceded a fifth in stoppage time as Niclas Fullkrug scored just his third Bundesliga goal of the season.

The result leaves Paderborn rock bottom and on the verge of relegation. Bremen remain 17th but are now level on points with Fortuna Dusseldorf who occupy the relegation play-off spot.
