Eintracht Frankfurt moved up to third in the standings after coming from behind to beat last season's runners-up RB Leipzig, who handed Englishman Ademola Lookman his full Bundesliga debut.

Eintracht Frankfurt 2-1 RB Leipzig

Goals: 0-1 Augustin (12'), 1-1 Chandler (22'), 2-1 Boateng (26')

Making up for lost time following a slight delay to proceedings at the Commerzbank-Arena, Leipzig took an early lead when Konrad Laimer burst forward and cut a neat ball back for Jean-Kevin Augustin to sweep home. Frankfurt weren't behind for long, though, with USA defender Timmy Chandler stabbing in the equaliser after Leipzig failed to deal with a corner. Similarly unconvincing defending let in the hosts for their second as Ante Rebic broke clear and teed up Kevin-Prince Boateng for his fifth Bundesliga goal of the season only four minutes later.

After Leipzig's Marcel Sabitzer had a penalty decision reversed by the Video Assistant, Frankfurt stepped up their pursuit of a third goal. They almost got it when Rebic launched a free-kick towards the top corner, only for Peter Gulasci to make a flying intervention. Frankfurt leading scorer Sebastien Haller headed narrowly over from another wicked set-piece, with clear-cut chances otherwise at a premium in a tempestuous second period, despite the introduction of Leipzig duo Emil Forsberg and Timo Werner.
