Stunning move!

The ball is worked down the right to Baku, who picks out Šeško inside the Pauli area. The striker makes a no-look reverse pass to Xavi, on the left of the box and the Dutchman smashes a low drive into the bottom-left of the Pauli net.

Clinical counter!

Pauli have their own shooting chance but Leipzig steal and race forward with intent. Xavi breaks down the left, into the opposition half, and spots a forward run from Šeško. The striker collects just inside the area and cuts inside a sliding defender before opening his body up and curling into the far-right corner. Ice cold.

Full-time: Kiel 2-2 Bochum

The points are shared in Kiel. After having dominated the first half, Bochum were significantly more quiet in the second and Kiel's half-time changes turned it around. A superb Tolkin free-kick set up Zec to level it just after the restart and after that Kiel pushed on. Arp was a menace down the left flank all half, terrorising the Bochum backline. Kiel struck the post twice and Holtby thought he'd won it late on, but a VAR review disallowed his goal for a foul in the build-up. It was a relegation battle that had everything.

Holtby!

The Holstein captain gives his side the lead with his first Bundesliga goal since 2018! Kiel turn defence into attack rapidly. Arp receives it down the left flank, before crossing towards the back post and into Machino. The Japanese knocks it down for Holtby, who smashes home into the bottom corner first time.

This time it's Remberg. Machino takes a long throw-in. Becker heads it down for Remberg who manages to squeeze a shot through the sea of bodies in front of him, but again his shot strikes the right post.

Off the line!

A Bochum corner comes into the box, initiating a goal-mouth scramble. A combination of Weiner and Gigović manage to dig the ball of their goal line to prevent another Bochum goal. There's barely time to breathe in this half...

Zec brings Kiel level!

What a header! Harres draws a foul in off the right flank for Kiel. Tolkin takes it, floating it in towards the penalty spot. Zec makes a great run and rises highest to head home from inside 12 yards. Kiel have the response they were looking for.

Half-time: Kiel 1-2 Bochum

It's been an enthralling start to this huge relegation encounter. Skrzybski continued his fantastic recent goalscoring form as he stepped up to convert a penalty inside three minutes. But it was Bochum who were lifted by the goal, the Ruhr club instantly looking for a response. Holtmann has been electric down the left and a quickfire Boadu brace brought the visitors level before then giving them the lead. It's been a physical encounter too, with three players already having to be substituted with injuries (two for Kiel, one for Bochum).

That’s it. Goals from Kleindienst and Ekitiké hand both sides a point in a game that could have ended 5-5 or 3-0 either way. Frankfurt edged it on big chances but either could have stolen all three points with a little more composure. An electric atmosphere and high drama throughout.

Swift response from Frankfurt!

Frankfurt are level and debutant Batshuayi plays his part. The Belgian receives the ball with back to goal inside the Gladbach box. He shows quick feet and strength to keep hold of it before the ball is fed to Larsson on the edge of the area. The midfielder curls a shot towards the top right corner, but Nicolas tips it onto the crossbar. Ekitiké is on hand to tap home the rebound for his 12th of the season.

Gladbach clear a ball out of their box to the left flank, where Neuhaus greets it. The midfielder sends a stunning, arcing cross back into the Gladbach area and straight onto the head of Kleindienst. The big man rises highest to nod it beyond Trapp from close range. It's his 13th of the campaign and he's now overtaken his tally for Heidenheim last term.

A miserable day at the office for the home side, who ship four goals, unanswered, against a direct relegation rival. Union Berlin were happy to let their hosts hog the ball, before countering ruthlessly when the chance arose. Two goals from the relentless Hollerbach and a dream debut from Ljbuicic, who scored and assisted, helped Union to a rare away win that could prove crucial as the season goes on.

Both sides struck the woodwork once each as both goals seemingly lived charmed lives in the second half, but it's Freiburg who claim all three points.
