Bayern concedes fastest Bundesliga goal, Rayo game called off, and Vincius
sees red card
By CIARAN FAHEY and JOSEPH WILSON
Associated Press
Bayern Munich goalkeeper Manuel Neuer gave away the Bundesliga's fastest ever
goal, Rayo Vallecano fans forced their La Liga game to be suspended, and Real
Madrid star Vincius Jnior was sent off for yanking the hair of an opponent on
Saturday.
Arsenal, Barcelona and Inter Milan also got wins to keep their leads as
Europe's national leagues resumed after an extended international break.
Bayern coach Vincent Kompany said his team's visit to Augsburg was a "priority
game" after its only league loss against Augsburg in Munich last season, but he
can't have imagined making a worse start to what ultimately ended in a 2-2 draw
--- the second time in five games Bayern has dropped points this season.
It began with Bayern playing the ball back from the kickoff to Neuer, who
botched his attempt at a chipped clearance and allowed Robin Fellhauer to score
after just eight seconds.
Bayern had to wait till the 55th minute for Ismael Saibari to pull level, only
for Rodrigo Ribeiro to restore the home team's lead nine minutes later.
Nathaniel Brown finally equalized in the 81st.
Bayer Leverkusen, the only team to break Bayern's dominance in any of the last
14 seasons, held on for a 4-3 win in Mainz, continuing its upturn in form under
Spanish coach Carles Martnez.
Christopher Nkunku netted a hat trick to fuel Leipzig's 6-0 demolition of
Eintracht Frankfurt.
Miro Muheim scored in stoppage time for Hamburger SV to win at Hoffenheim 3-2,
Union Berlin beat promoted Elversberg 1-0 for its first victory of the season,
and Stuttgart won at Paderborn 2-0.
Rayo fans stop game in Spain Rayo fans forced a suspension of their team's match against Athletic Bilbao by repeatedly throwing paper airplanes and other objects onto the field in protest against club owner Ral Martn Presa. It was Rayo's first league game of the season at home since city authorities initially closed the stadium over safety concerns. Presa has long been unpopular among Rayo fans since taking over the club in 2011. Also, it was business as usual for Barcelona even without injured top scorer Raphinha. Barcelona equaled its best ever La Liga start with an eighth win in as many rounds. Anthony Gordon got his first goal since joining Barcelona, Gabriel Jesus scored in his first start and the defending champion eased to a 3-0 win over Getafe. Atletico Madrid won at Deportivo La Coruna 2-1 to remain in second at five points back. Red card for Vincius Vincius earned a direct red card for pulling the hair of Villarreal's Nathan Saliba, leaving Real Madrid needing to hang on for the final 20 minutes to earn a 1-0 win. Vincius was celebrating after scoring when referee Isidro Daz de Mera was called by the video assistant to review the moments before his goal. The referee waived off the goal and sent Vincius off for tugging on Saliba's hair. Yan Diomande scored his first goal since joining Madrid, finding the net early in the second half. Defending champ wins in Premier League Bruno Guimaraes came off the bench to score on his home debut as defending champion Arsenal recovered to beat Leeds 2-1 in the Premier League. Arsenal moved level on points with Manchester City at the top of the table ahead of City's tricky trip to Liverpool on Sunday. Jordan Henderson scored a brace in Chelsea's 5-1 win over Bournemouth. Tottenham snatched a 1-1 draw at Manchester United with 10 men, Sunderland lost to 10-man Brighton which remained third, and fourth-placed Brentford drew 2-2 at Aston Villa. PSG wins while Paris FC finally loses Khvicha Kvaratskhelia came off the bench to lead Paris Saint-Germain's 3-1 win over Le Mans, while Ousmane Dembl and Nuno Mendes rested for Tuesday's visit to City in the Champions League. Lorient ended Paris FC's unbeaten start with a 1-0 win. The still unbeaten Monaco squandered a two-goal lead in a 2-2 draw with Toulouse, while Brest routed Angers 5-1. McTominay returns for Napoli Scott McTominay got his first minutes for Napoli since he underwent minor heart surgery last month. The Scotland midfielder went on as a second-half substitute in a 3-0 win over promoted Frosinone that was fueled by a Kevin de Bruyne double. Marcus Thuram was one of three Inter Milan players to score in the first half in a 3-0 win over Parma. Inter leads Serie A by three points ahead of Roma and Lazio, which both play on Sunday. Genoa defeated Fiorentina 2-1. ___ Fahey reported from Berlin, and Wilson reported from Barcelona, Spain. ___ See AP's full soccer coverage here |
