BERLIN (AP) — Robin Gosens scored twice after his first-ever Bundesliga start in 10-man Union Berlin’s 4-1 win at Darmstadt, and Borussia Dortmund was again held 1-1 by Bochum on Saturday.
Another Dortmund disappointment at local rival Bochum rekindled memories of their 1-1 draw last season, when Dortmund was denied what officials later agreed was a clear penalty decision. That draw arguably cost Dortmund the title.
United States midfielder Brenden Aaronson was sent off with two early cards in Union’s win, but the 29-year-old Gosens starred as the visitors recovered to score four goals for the third consecutive game across all competitions. Union also beat Atalanta 4-1 in its final warmup game.
Maximilian Philipp scored in the sixth minute of injury time for Freiburg to beat Werder Bremen 1-0.
Heidenheim wasted a two-goal lead in its first-ever Bundesliga home game as Hoffenheim came back to win 3-2.
Jonas Wind scored twice for Wolfsburg to come from behind to beat Cologne 2-1.
Borussia Mönchengladbach hosted Bayer Leverkusen later Saturday.
