We have a new Bundesliga leader and he is from Berlin

History is being written in Berlin, from round to round. Three and a half years ago, in May 2019, this small German club fought with the big Hamburger for entry into the Bundesliga. On this day, the former European champion is still in the second league, and Urs Fischer's team is not only playing successfully in the elite, but after the triumph in Cologne (0-1) it is the only one with Bayern without defeat and the leader in the table! At the same time, Union is playing in Europe for the second consecutive time.

New three points and breakthrough to first position - where Union will remain due to Freiburg's draw against Monchengladbach, was brought by an own goal by Cologne stopper Tim Hubers in the 3rd minute. The guests were dominant in the opening half an hour, had the opportunity to decide the game with another goal, however, returning from injury, Jordan Siebatcheu badly executed the most severe penalty in the 10th minute.

Guess who's top of Bundesliga! Hint: It ain't Bayern!

Union had a few more very good chances, at the beginning of the second half, but could not score another goal that would definitely break the fading Cologne. As time passed, the pace slowed down. Both teams played Europe on Thursday and it was clearly felt in terms of energy. The only goal of the game in the end was more than enough for the victory and the first place at the table.

The second placed team Freiburg nearly took over the first place from Union, but the goalkeeper Yann Sommer was brilliant again with 8 saves, and the game ended 0-0. To be perfectly fair, Borussia Monchengladbach should be unsatisfied with the draw, since they missed numerous chances in the first half to finish the game off. When they didn't do that, Freiburg was there to press in the second, but the hosts just couldn't finish the game. They played in the Europa League this Thursday and were too tired.
