Five games were played Wednesday in the German Bundesliga:
At Leverkusen:
Miroslav Klose (15') and Hugo Almeida (78') provided the scoring punch as Werder Bremen blanked hosts Bayer Leverkusen 2-0 to stay atop the Bundesliga standings (due to better goal differential than FC Schalke 04).
At Gelsenkirchen:
FC Schalke 04 maintained a share of the lead in the Bundesliga table with their 2-1 home win over Alemania Aachen. Marcio Rafinha (PK-23') provided a goal for the hosts, as did the guests' Moses Sichone with an own goal (74') which turned out for the visitors to be the game loser.
At Hamburg:
Visiting Energie Cottbus and moribund (and now basement squatters) Hamburg played to a 1-1 deadlock.
At Hannover:
Bergantin Vinicius tallied twice (16', 37') to help ignite an offensive barrage as Hannover 96 demolished visiting Hertha Berlin 5-0.
At Mainz:
Leon Andreasen's penalty kick at 61 minutes lifted Mainz to a 1-0 home win over Borussia Dortmund, and lifted the hosts out of the league basement.
And this tidbit from Munich:
Defending Bundesliga titleholders Bayern Munich on Wednesday, the day following their scoreless home stalemate versus relegation candidates VfL Bochum, fired head coach Felix Magath and replaced him with former coach Ottmar Hitzfeld. The champs are currently sitting in fourth place in the league standings, trailing Werder Bremen, Schalke 04, and VfB Stuttgart.
