Leverkusen, Dortmund Drop Points in Bundesliga

Bayer Leverkusen and Borussia Dortmund both dropped points in the Bundesliga, with Leverkusen drawing 2-2 with Holstein Kiel after surrendering a two-goal lead, and Dortmund losing 2-1 to Union Berlin. Leverkusen's early goals came from Victor Boniface and Jonas Hofmann, but defensive lapses allowed Kiel to equalize, highlighting ongoing defensive issues for the champions. Dortmund, missing injured forward Karim Adeyemi, failed to replicate their midweek Champions League form against Union Berlin, who secured the win with goals from Kevin Vogt and Yorbe Vertessen. Freiburg and Wolfsburg both secured victories against Werder Bremen and Bochum, respectively, while Augsburg beat Borussia Mönchengladbach. These results leave Bayern Munich poised to extend their lead at the top of the table if they win their next match against Eintracht Frankfurt.
