Bayer Dominates Bayern, But Draws; Will Face Them Again in the UCL

Bayer versus Bayern – a lopsided Topspiel that ended in a draw, leaving the Meisterschale seemingly destined for Munich. Despite dominating the guests from Munich, Bayer couldn't find the net and remains eight points behind the league leaders – a gap that appears too large to close in the final 12 games. Leverkusen will get another chance at the Rekordmeister in the Round of 16 of the UCL, while Frankfurt will face Ajax Amsterdam. On the other side of the table, Bochum defeated Borussia Dortmund in a spirited effort, tying them on points with the playoff spot. Further down, Hamburg might finally reverse their promotion woes and return to the top flight after a statement win over fellow promotion aspirant Kaiserslautern.
