Borussia Dortmund maintained top spot at the end of gameweek 2. They defeated Hertha Berlin 2-0, goals from prolific striker Aubameyang and Nuri Sahin were enough to earn Dortmund all 3-points. It also ended 2-0 in favor of Bayern Munich when they went up against Werder Bremen, Robert Lewandowski proving decisive with two well-taken goals. Bayern has won this fixture in their last 10 meetings, so it was expected they win this one easily. Last season’s runner up, RB Leipzig recorded their first win of the campaign and it was an emphatic victory against Freiburg. They won that game 4-0 with a top striker, Timo Werner popping up with 2 goals.
It promises to be a very interesting season. Dortmund is looking solid under new coach Peter Bosz and also Carlo Ancelloti’s Bayern is still firing on all cylinders. Last season’s surprise package, RB Leipzig are already rolling in the goals. Not forgetting Koln, Hertha Berlin and also Hoffenheim.

C'mon Dortmund!
I think, Bundes league is one of the best leagues in the world. But I think the best is the English league. Just what I want to say is not that, I just want to say thank you for this good post. and thank you for the imformation of the end result of the game, standings and top scores. Thank you @steemsports
Great post
Gonna be an interesting year. see if Leipzig can continue what they started last year or if they will crash like Leicester City in the English league.

I bet Hamburg is gonna go down this year. It's always the outsider that starts off at the top at the begin of the season.
