RB Leipzig beat Augsburg 3-0 on Saturday and moved to within a point of Bayer Leverkusen and Bayern Munich, who tied on two goals on Friday.
Despite the absence of Dani Olmo, who injured his right knee in the Georgia-Spain match on September 8, and his defender and captain Willi Orban, who is also a victim of the ‘FIFA virus’ with Hungary, RB Leipzig finished success in the first to half an hour.
Xavi Simons opened the scoring in the 7th minute with his third Bundesliga goal, the Belgian Lois Openda increased the lead in the 11th and David Raum made it 3-0 in the 27th minute.

Hoffenheim beat Cologne 1-3, while Stuttgart beat Mainz by the same score and Wolfsburg beat Union Berlin, Real Madrid’s Champions League rivals, 2-1.
Borussia Dortmund achieved their second victory of the season by beating Wolfsburg 2-4 and are one point below the previous quartet.
