I for one am very intrigued just to see how well Riera does.

Hamburg 2-2 Bayern, what a game. How good is Luka Vuskovic? Monstrous defensive display and dangerous in attack. They matched Bayern tonight. Just two defeats in 10 at home this season. That point could be crucial come May.

One for the Tottenham fans: we've looked at Luka Vuลกkoviฤ‡'s season so far at Hamburg. (Spoiler: He's one of the Bundesliga's best defenders).

Can't say Toppmรถller's time wasn't coming. Frankfurt needed to react. It's a shame, because he's done some great stuff at SGE.

Also great to see Musiala grace a football pitch again.

And that is a prime example of why you need to take your chances. Although I'm not sure it would have mattered regardless with Bayern's second half performance. Truly phenomenal stuff.

Leipzig really taking the game to Bayern here, but I hope they don't rue their missed chances. Their attacking quartet: Baumgartner, Diomande, Nusa and Romulo causing all kinds of problems at the back.

Hoffenheim have just taken the lead through Wouter Burger. Win today and TSG win six in a row at home. I have to say, their transformation under Ilzer in comparison to last season is tenfold. They're well on a European charge.

Manchester United have been excellent this afternoon.

Frankfurt-born Younes Ebnoutalib (22) was playing in Germany's fourth tier with GieรŸen a little over a year ago..

Scoring a superb equaliser against Dortmund isn't a bad way to announce yourself in the Bundesliga.

Interestingly, he grew up learning taekwondo.

How do Eintracht Frankfurt and Borussia Dortmund stack up ahead of 2026 restart? Eintracht Frankfurt host Borussia Dortmund in Matchday 16โ€™s curtain-raiser on Friday night to kick off 2026. Two of the Bundesligaโ€™s in-form teams with contrasting playing styles clash in what promise...

It's here! After a five year absence, the GGFN 100 makes a return!

A lot of work went into this. Super grateful to those who contributed. Also had fun putting this together.

And the best part for you? It's FREE!

It's been a couple of weeks since I've been on here, so I hope each of you have had a lovely holiday period. Wishing you all and your loved ones a happy and healthy 2026. Have been working on something which, all being well, should be released tomorrow.

I know he scored, and Moritz Nicolas was excellent for Gladbach, but Maximilian Beier had to put his 1v1 away at 1-0. Hopefully they work on their shooting during the winter break..

Serhou Guirassy is goalless in his last 6 Bundesliga games of the season - the last time he failed to score in 6 consecutive Bundesliga games was his first 6 games in 2017/18 during his time at 1. FC Kรถln.

Borussia Dortmund will end 2025 in the top three and, considering their recent performances, isn't too bad at all. No team has drawn more than BVB's five in the Bundesliga this season, and they're having a real problem in front of goal.

Karl was called up to Bayern's Club World Cup squad where he impressed Kompany, earning him a permanent promotion to the first team where he hasn't looked out of place. Has been a joy to watch in Musiala's absence this season.

Also strikes me as someone who is extremely mature for his age. Scored with his weaker right foot vs Sporting CP, something that he's been working on in training. His goals against Club Brugge and Arsenal equally as impressive.

Lennart Karl (17 years, 290 days) is the youngest player in Champions League history to score in three successive games, per Opta. Plays with such freedom and confidence. Refreshing to see.

Anselmino is another player that impressed in a back three alongside Anton and Schlotterbeck. Conservative going into the tackle and comfortable in possession, he was good at progressing the ball. He's been excellent this season. No doubt the transfer poker with Chelsea will begin shortly.

While Brandt and Schlotterbeck scored, it was Yan Couto who impressed me the most. Started ahead of Ryerson, and played a role in both goals. His final ball was on point. Also defended well against Tourรฉ, who is one of the Bundesliga's brightest prospects.

On a Matchday in which Leverkusen, Stuttgart and Frankfurt all dropped points, Dortmund did well to beat a Hoffenheim side that were unbeaten in their last six games, to extend their own unbeaten streak to six in the Bundesliga.

Borussia Dortmund celebrate as they go six unbeaten in the Bundesliga, ending Hoffenheim's six game unbeaten run. Brandt scores on his 200th BL appearance for BVB, Schlotterbeck impressive. I thought Yan Couto was great too.

Was at the RheinEnergieStadion today where former Peterborough striker Ricky-Jade Jones scored in the fifth minute of stoppage time to secure a vital point for St. Pauli, ending their nine game losing streak. A courageous performance.
