Hamburger SV 2-2 Bayern Munich

Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich dropped points for the second consecutive match after being held to a draw by a determined Hamburger SV at the Volksparkstadion.

The home side had a bright start to the match and deservedly took the lead at the half hour mark through a Fábio Vieira penalty following a foul by Bayern's Joshua Kimmich.

Kimmich then became provider for the visitors, finding Harry Kane with a neat short pass in the box for the Englishman to bury the equalizer in the 42nd minute.

The Bavarians took the lead in the first minute of the second half after Jamal Musiala finished expertly from a Michael Olise assist.

However, Hamburger SV hit back with an equalizer seven minutes later when Luka Vuskovic powerfully headed in a pinpoint cross.

Both sides had to settle for a draw despite numerous chances created for a winner, with Alphonso Davies clearing a goal bound shot from the line.

The draw keeps Bayern on top of the table while Hamburger moves up to 13th.

Hoffenheim produced another solid display as they won their seventh consecutive Bundesliga match in the victory over Berlin on Saturday.

Hoffenheim managed to pull away from the visitors shortly after the restart after Union's Diogo Leite unwillingly put the ball in his own net following a low driven cross from Bazoumana Toure.

Berlin rallied for a comeback and were rewarded when a Rani Khedira deflected shot found its way into the net to make the score 3-1.

The result sees Hoffenheim tighten their grip on third spot on the table while Berlin remains ninth.
