Minnows Augsburg sink Frankfurt to top Bundesliga table
Augsburg's 4-1 victory over Eintracht Frankfurt put them top of the Bundesliga table after two matches, the first time ever for the club.
Bavarian football team Augsburg stunned Eintracht Frankfurt 4-1, moving them to the top of the Bundesliga after just two games. This marks the first time in the club's history that they have won their opening round. The victory came after a scoreless draw for Bayern Munich against Schalke, bringing an end to their 67-match winning streak at the top of the table.
Augsburg's coach, Manuel Baum, expressed his delight at the team's achievement, saying, "People, we live for moments like this. When we see each other in a few years, we'll tell stories about how we topped the table with Augsburg." He added, "That's something to enjoy for a day."
The four goals that secured Augsburg's win were scored by Arijon Ibrahimovic, Robin Fellhauer, Alexis Claude Maurice, and Fabian Rieder, with Jonathan Burkardt putting Frankfurt ahead earlier in the match.
In another Bundesliga match, Mainz secured a 5-0 triumph over Hamburg, with Phillip Tietz scoring twice and Sheraldo Becker, Phillipp Mwene, and Ransford Koenigsdoerffer also finding the back of the net.
