Bundesliga

How do you say Cinderella in German? Elversberg. This is how a modest team from the regional league, representing a city of 13,000 residents whose locker room used to be in a garage basement, became a Bundesliga club that dismantles Bayer Leverkusen 3:2 with attacking and captivating football.

The European champion salvaged another 2:2 draw, this time against Lille, thanks to two goals in stoppage time. The Bavarians continued exactly where they left off last season, with a 5:1 win over Stuttgart. Italy: victory for Milan.
