Borussia Dortmund and Elversberg won their Bundesliga season-openers with 2-0 and 3-2 victories, respectively.

Why it matters

These results highlight the competitive nature of the Bundesliga and the success of newly promoted teams like Elversberg.

Two teams, Dortmund and Elversberg, won their first games of the season. Dortmund beat Hamburg 2-0, and Elversberg beat Bayer Leverkusen 3-2. It was a big win for Elversberg because they are a small town with only 13,000 people.

Analysis

{"

Elversberg's Dream Debut":"> Elversberg, a town with just 13,000 people, made a dream Bundesliga debut with a 3-2 victory over Bayer Leverkusen. They raced into an early 2-0 lead after goals from Lukas Petkov and Cole Campbell, and then added a third in the 46th minute through David Mokwa. Leverkusen pulled a goal back 13 minutes from the end through Patrik Schick and Christian Kofane netted a second in added time.","

Dortmund's Clinical Victory":"> Borussia Dortmund secured a 2-0 victory over Hamburg with goals from Serhou Guirassy and Giannis Konstantelias. Guirassy provided a clinical finish inside the opening nine minutes to settle Dortmund, before new signing Konstantelias fired in a shot that took a deflection off a defender and into the net. Dortmund finished the game with 10 men when Samuele Inacio received a straight red card three minutes after coming off the bench for a dangerous tackle.","

Leipzig's Dominance":"> RB Leipzig defeated Borussia Moenchengladbach 3-0 with Ridle Baku, Antonio Nusa, and Rocco Reitz all on target. The latter scored against his former side. Mainz and Paderborn played to a 0-0 draw, while Tim Skarke scored a 92nd equaliser for Union Berlin in their 3-3 draw with Eintracht Frankfurt. The latter led 3-1 in the 67th minute thanks to Younes Ebnoutalib's hat-trick, but could not hold on for the away win. Thijs Dalling scored twice in the final 18 minutes to secure a 3-2 win for Cologne over Hoffenheim. Bayern Munich started their league season with a thumping 5-1 win over Stuttgart."}
