Andrich and Schick late show keeps Leverkusen unbeaten

Last-gasp goals from Robert Andrich and Patrik Schick snatched Bayer Leverkusen victory from the jaws of defeat with a 2-1 home win over Hoffenheim on Saturday.

A first-half Maximilian Baier strike had Hoffenheim on track to break Leverkusen's unbeaten streak, which now stands at 39 matches, just one day after in-demand manager Xabi Alonso pledged his future to the club.

But as they have done regularly this season, Leverkusen fought back late as Andrich levelled the scores in the 88th minute before an injury-time Schick volley sealed another remarkable comeback win.

The victory sends title-bound Leverkusen 13 points clear of Bayern Munich, who face Borussia Dortmund later on Saturday, with seven matches remaining this season.

The late win continued Leverkusen's record of victories in the dying moments this season, with Alonso's side scoring late to beat Augsburg, Leipzig, Stuttgart in the German Cup and twice against Qarabag in the Europa League.

RB Leipzig's bid for a Champions League spot took a hit with a scoreless draw at home to lowly Mainz.

The home side were twice denied in the opening half, with an eighth-minute handball penalty overturned by VAR and a Lois Openda goal chalked off for offside.

The point provisionally takes Leipzig into fourth past Dortmund, ahead of their visit to Bayern.

New Wolfsburg manager Ralph Hasenhuettl defeated a 10-man Werder Bremen 2-0 away, the former Southampton coach claiming victory in his first match in charge.

Bremen were reduced to 10 men just before halftime following a last-man foul from Anthony Jung, with Maxence Lacroix putting the Wolves in front shortly afterwards.

Lacroix was sent off in the second half, but Wolfsburg's Lovro Majer scored to seal the win.

Freiburg took a step towards European qualification in long-serving coach Christian Streich's final season at the club with a 3-0 win at Borussia Moenchengladbach.

The Black Forest side were in full control against struggling Gladbach, Michael Gregoritsch, Merlin Roehl and Ritsu Doan all scoring goals.

Union Berlin held Eintracht Frankfurt to a 0-0 draw away, picking up a valuable point to go nine clear of the relegation spots.
