The most important thing about the 26th Bundesliga matchday: Union defends itself against FC Bayern – Sport

Union Berlin had had one point to VfL Bochum in early February because of the much -discussed lighter throw. Then, like Bochum, a direct competitor in the relegation battle, the Berliners followed three points from FC Bayern from Munich, such as Bochum, a direct competitor. But instead of inserting against it, the Unioner gave a plan to simply lose points themselves. They treated the guests, not surprisingly, absurdly high ball possession rates, defended the mostly lukewarm flanks confidently, would almost take the lead through an accident back from Joshua Kimmich after the break – and came back even when everyone expected the mandatory Munich work victory.

Bavaria had previously used the first chain of inaccuracies on the Berlin defensive. Michael Olise sent Josip Stanišić towards the baseline, whose passport turned to Union Jeong Woo-Yeong-but he didn’t dare to go to the ball for unknown reasons. Leroy Sané thanked him. But: Because Bavaria’s goalkeeper Jonas Urbig had a slightly deflected flank in front of the feet of Benedict Hollerbach, Union actually scored to equalize – and will now be very careful what Bayern will hire against the St. Pauli, which is at risk of relegation next weekend.

1. FSV Mainz 05SC Freiburg 2:2 (1:0), Goals: 1: 0 Jonathan Burkardt (34th), 1: 1 Michael Gregoritsch (58.), 2: 1 Andreas Hanche-Olsen (74.), 2: 2 Lukas Kübler (79.); Special events: Red for Dominik Kohr (43.)

Mainz against Freiburg, third against fifth: Anyone who would have typed on this constellation on this constellation on the 26th matchday of the Bundesliga would have been rewarded with a premium worthy of royal class. And Mainz then started like a team that is seriously applying for the Champions League; At first it wasn’t too dangerous before Anthony Caci managed to smuggle a ball at the right corner of the penalty area past Philipp Lienhart. Jonathan Burkardt had an easy game with the perfectly served cross. However, the euphoria fizzled out quickly, Dominik Kohr pulled Freiburg’s Lucas Höler on the edge of the penalty area on the arm – the video referee took back Benjamin Brand’s penalty sanction, but Kohr saw red because of the emergency brake after studying again.

Freiburg set out two in half -time to pull the game as seriously to his side as a fifth in the table does. Michael Gregoritsch, in half time to refine the allusions on the offensive, the flank of Christian Günter balanced into the goal, Lukas Kübler did the same after preliminary work by Ritsu Doan. Small blemish: Freiburg goalkeeper Noah Atubolu had not captured a flank in front of Kübler’s goal and Andreas Hanche-Olsen allowed the meantime 2-1 for Mainz. A 2: 2 to the end. Why will such a point after 34 games still be good?

FC St. Pauli

:Ready for the class struggle

It looked for St. Pauli for a long time after a comparatively worry -free season, but the relegation places have moved dangerously. The 1-0 against TSG Hoffenheim delivers two central knowledge.

SV Werder BremenBorussia Mönchengladbach 2:4 (2:2), Tore: 0: 1 and 0: 2 Alassane Pléa (7th, penalty)28.), 1:2 Romano Schmid (39.), 2: 2 André Silva (45.+1, penalty), 2: 3 Pléa (47.), 2: 4 Kleindienst (81.); Special events: Yellow-red for small service (90.+1)

A very entertaining game on the Weser. Initially, Bremen missed any security of the recently surprising away win in Leverkusen. Shortly after the start of the game, Miloš Veljković stumbled into the penalty area in Gladbach’s Robin Hack. Alassane Pléa safely converted the due penalty. At the next goal, Borussia countered at a snail pace, Werder did not consider it necessary to decisively disrupt the flow of the game – at the end of the chain, Pléa again took direct acceptance.

With a safe 2-0 lead, Gladbach then scentlessly distributed gifts. Only Borussia goalkeeper Jonas Omlin posted his wall so badly that Romano Schmid was able to circle a free kick half-high on the right into the net. Then Lukas Ullrich ensured one of the most unnecessary penalty of the season: at the sprint from the sixteen, he checked out from behind on the edge of the penalty area ISSA Kaboré – and gave André Silva in the Werder jersey.

However, the Bremen double strike fizzled out immediately in halftime. After Hack, Pléa scored his third goal of the day shortly after the restart. The Frenchman rounded off his gala with an assist for Tim Kleindienst to 4-2 final score. Small flaws from a Borussia perspective: Small service saw yellow-red in added time. Gladbach nevertheless achieved the fourth away win in a series and is still in the race for the European Cup places.

FC AugsburgVFL Wolfsburg 1:0 (0:0), Tore: 1:0 Phillip Tietz (54.)

As the only team in the Bundesliga, Augsburg remains unbeaten in the second half of the season. The first half against Wolfsburg was largely uneventful. Only VfL defender Denis Vavro provided danger before his own goal with a deflected rescue attempt-the goalkeeper Kamil Grabara returned after injury.

The lead goal then fell in a conceivably simple way: Cédric Zesiger, currently awarded from Wolfsburg to Augsburg, with Effet a long ball from his own half, Vavro misled colossal, so that Phillip Tietz was suddenly free in front of the goal. The FCA striker stayed calm and spanked the ball past Grabara. This is how efficiency works.

Wolfsburg subsequently tried a lot. However, as in the past few weeks, the hosts presented themselves as extremely robust. Goalkeeper Finn Dahmen grabbed it safely until the end of the game and screwed up his current club record for most minutes in a row without a goal for another 90 minutes. After the victory, Augsburg is now on par with the VfL in the table – only two points are missing in international places.
