well you. see. stars december 25th. much take 13 of the bundesliga put this season's over achievers firmly in the spotlight when young berlin a flying higher than expected as they go from strength to strength could lay out

muscle development and heap more misery on the fledgling big hitters. postponed and stuttgart have also surprised the season tones in a battle for european qualification. and then there are the under-achievers shelter brought in their old friend hoops stephens to fire up their dismal squad against the fell. while glad about what i need to smooth out that stuff during stops of the season against hoffenheim. but 1st let's see how the bundesliga spice profile overachievers lay the cruising going on sitting pretty in 1st place they face the biggest challenge yet in pa in munich. the reigning champ supposed features recently crowned the best goalkeeper and best player out rights and wow to reclaim top spot leverkusen a wakeup call. it

has been almost 10 years since buyer leverkusen last sat top of the table they've always had a big threat up front but there was agents this season is also due to suring up the defense on saturday evening however they faced a team none too happy about being dislodged from their accustomed so who would rule the roost in this top of the table clash. by and were well aware that they'd gone behind in their previous 6 games and here too it was their opponents who got off to a more dynamic stance. and often not yemeni aries long distance effort they kept up the pressure a short corner in the 14th minute saw remarry then tee up patrick schick the 1st sumptuous volley on the lead. laver cousens offenses as potent as ever despite the departure of chi have and kevin fall and in the summer. that's thanks to new signing schick slotting straight into the

team set up and together with b. and leon bailey providing a variety of attacking options and check out the goal in the back of the net again on the hof our mark. only to be holmes marginally offside. i don't think you can saw that big difference between them and us we. we play with a lot of courage we press them high we we try to build up and play with position. but by and champions of germany and europe are a team who fight back rather than cave in. and they have robot levon dusky my kid julie drew the sides level just before half time after a breakdown in communication among the hosts. perhaps overeager even

attend tom those missed his head under the process impeded his and keep up. and after the break by imposed a growing threat as they wrestled back the initiative. their personal high but we knew that a part of stay patient are doing the 1st of and you know 2nd have you know we started talking more and more and i'm happy that we can you know one in again. given dusty's teammates also bed that search gnabry went desperately close in the 67th minute and she among the c.l.o. went even closer in the 79th class ions coach knows how to use the extra options at his disposal in this case bringing on leroy's in a during the 1st tall and something him back off 35 minutes later with the right outcome. that said it might so easily have stayed

a stalemate if tom hadn't handed by on a 2nd season not gift in stoppage time my. god which you know who needed no 2nd asking to accept. the. town with his 2nd assist of the game for by an all the 11 dusty shot. did take a deflection off edmund taps about unlucky for some but it's the kind of thing that strangely no never happens to find. it a. bitter and unnecessary at the end of course we should all cells in the lab should have 1st known for naturally good at least a 11. tie and prevailed yet again in the nick of time and at the last minute also secured top spot getting into the winter break and there was no question about the man of the match and indeed of the match day.

man of the year and man of the weekend robert leaven tomsky wasn't even in top form on saturday. but she was still too good for life accusing massey yet again took care of business . as it was about to come to friendly with. the city sometimes playing 2020 shillings to a woman in. china is nothing like the criticisms of big brother places that get back to the top of the but mostly. live and dusky becomes the 1st buy in player to be crowned faeces footballer of the year and is also obvious before much of much

they 13. but now we go from the biggest stage in world football to momentous surroundings in burnley. the activist and i the pride of footballing berlin. for one half of the city at least. normally the 2nd season for top flight debutantes is just as tough as the 1st. for these guys. already and 6 spot when the own hosted dortmund who had can take a coach 1810th sit at the helm when the owner had already held bloodbath even by an end to a point and this time fancy their chances of taking all serene the overachievers of the season so far versus the big underachievers don't want to hoping to get back on track in the title challenge but they were happy not to go one nil down after just

2 minutes when mats hummels foils taiwo one year. and so often early on putting the my plucking up 9 kilometers more than their opponents in for their part struggled to produce much and in any case scoring against your own rarely comes easy. just weeks ago the stellar likes of marco royce and jayden sanchez who had don't mind riding high but the team has since come crashing back down to earth. there is new hope though in the shape of uses for mukoko who in the 1st half at least showed that many of us defense unlike the woodwork was not impervious. but it was after the break that aiden tests at his problems really began set pieces of being a blind spot for dormant under blue. so often it was the corner that paved the way for when he'll a 11 now not the way don't mind imagine the game progressing. but really

disappointed because when sets out to defend set pieces better but i've. given the rainer here off the pace as we own set the pace. much said before that set pieces can determine our games out of the gate and could just wait. really well at the moment the moments are good. 3 minutes later there was a bright spark in an otherwise lackluster job and performance mukoko smashed in the equaliser and doing so smashing the record for the business league is youngest ever goal still raw he turned 16 less than one months ago. because the celebration no many. americans right led with pace world allotted for him about might we still lost. them for around 20 minutes. that's because there was something in the air

that friday night. and that something was marvin's freakish when he owns had a supremely. because of those dreaded set pieces continues to haunt don't mess with it but if i'd never been a club in months i place the best man in the air and he has to be covered from it i just don't get how it happened just because of the position. oh. oh. oh. oh that's why i should be the one in the last 5 games we thrown away too much is because a set pieces it's not on and we can't be making things that easy goals like that in the bonus league and the loose. lindley's again to the site they felt were beneath

them are still behind don't mend in the table now might just one point. fantastic news to me on the coming of the match day. which was conjured up in the same stadium with the record. that will take some p.t. . so i just use 2 such things not just seem right to those days when it's fun to strike but you just suck in some stuff this song for you to strut. it's 60 sometimes you days old you start going to sleep teenage sensation use of the cocoa with his 1st goal in the bundesliga. for going to sell sums but not yet but

soon he might be turning everyone knows they get a fender inside out somebody or something but in keeping with the current era let's be careful. my. use of it is 16 and he's here because he's good. at sort of putting him in the spotlight after every single thing he does every goal tell him. to get. in a compact we've got some overachievers and plenty of underachieve as captain lash tindall's contract extension with some much needed good news as the folsom spent the entire season outside of the top 4 he delivered more good news from the penalty spot before half time his 8 scold of the season but hoffenheim hit back on trade commerce netting off the full games without a goal after a bomb storming start to the season oftentimes had fallen short of expectations

shortly after marcus to romp spot that stephanie halasz a red card which opened the door for a hoffenheim comeback. ryan says a new home schooled in the 87th minute to seal the 21 win a boost for the visitors while marco rose's man just cannot match the all seasons highlights. like sync left back and head leno has been a real overachiever this season scoring 7 goals in all competitions but he couldn't help his team this time. the underachieving team horn with towards him time and again to ensure a no no draw for cologne to celebrate securing a 2nd clean sheet of the season. frame and have almost exactly the same record as at this point last season they

underachieving school and didn't get much better not to have their strikers. but 5 minutes from time youngster aaron did she came on for his debut and managed to get the winning gold in the 90th minute securing 3 massive points against relegation rivals minds. perhaps he can be the great new has to that a. little bit shy guy i could say he's a he's not a guy as many words but as he speaks results it's ok a little bit to believe in football miracles. minds are open does he get miracle overachieving just by being in the top division that it looks ever more likely that that top flight tenure could end say. it's been a gloomy period for frank 1st without a win since the start of october but they got some luck in our book and on goal gifting them the lead in the 53rd minute. the hosts weren't happy bob i have been

enjoying a steady campaign with no relegation worry so far. frank 1st sealed the deal 3 minutes from time. a lovely city move finished by stephane il sancha. a 1st win in 10 matches for the. eagles enough to make hardy who feel the love. can to keep our alexander shore low was back a former club freiburg for the 1st time since his transfer in august having spent 10 years with the club. freiburg a perennial overachievers and got the 1st goal a lovely diving header from ben chance of grief 0 to welcome back his former colleague just 7 minutes and. 7 minutes into the 2nd half hatter drew level there underachieving again this season the self-proclaimed big

city club of the in playing far below their squad strength. and the relief for sure no was short lived another 7 minutes after the equaliser emogene to mirror their a 2nd cost freiburg form a shot stopper. after a cool one up manu as good or piled on the mall misery 31 show low had had enough and that wasn't even the final act. in the 94th minute the keeper had a chance to redeem himself against spot kick specialist nails pietersen. but fellow couldn't get it right a miserable outing for hatter and yet there was still some smiles after the match. the blunders leaguers biggest underachievers shocker have brought back coach hoop stevens for a 4th time he was tasked with ending

a 28 game windless run but opponents bielefeld had other ideas they have the bulk of the chances even though the hosts look steady and defense that's until fabien close was left completely open to not in his 2nd one just to get going. enough to seal shelters 29th game without a whip. in the situation since we're weeks months and i think. the most there is those who are to me it is for us all we will stop trying and we and we can think about so in this regard from now all we keep going and we fight on together to indian harsh words i know what time is and insights can shout to really be saved. shall kerney just savior and a yet again looking to hoop stevens. the dutchman led them to wait for cup glory

and to domestic cups unknown long time. but the bad times too so why now return for the 1st time romance. and i say yes i still feel that blue and white heart beating inside of me. in the pool do you call me when the clubs in trouble it's hard to say no. in. a reversal of fortunes before david hockney and the recently dismissed found it had been stevens at the helm. shouted desperately need leadership from the top unless it's to all end in tears. but now to 2 teams who have put their was behind the.

calls bush took out so to overachieve is pitted against each other. the hosts were unbeaten at home and with just one defeat to y. and even then against by in munich. their opponent has surprised even more undefeated on the road and likewise had only lost once again at the hands by a. song. would win a match and become the overachiever of the season so far after 11 minutes it looks like both book yet again tonight by gregor coble and the post. stuttgart looking vulnerable. but midway through the 1st half they also showed their potential the speed was there but not the finish. see last woman get to the top scorer but unable to have to his goal tally today. at the other end of a course came close. to. these wolves scented blood and

a looping cross was converted by gary hart. but their celebrations was short lived. the referee called a push in the build up of the it might have been subtle but one that kept the school goalless at the end of the 1st half of. the 2nd began with the visitors hitting the woodwork and left cursing that bad luck. in contrast of all spoke when your seat bracket put them in front in the 50th minutes. courtesy of the bit of pinball action i overachievers sometimes need fortune on this side to. the wolves now went on the defensive washed it got huffed and puffed but ultimately pretty toothless in attack despite being set up by robots amassing with only the goal to beat any solace can try to miss the mark.

if you saw one military. post book remain on beat no hug and go into the winter break in the d.t. heights for sport. when we play like this we've so much passion you have so much in hats we can we can win this game and that's why we are now fighting it deb it did was a fight for all to get her and the team fighting for this win and so i'm really happy. with the mentality of all the players so this is a basic she is working to get working as a team on the pitch and really happy. she's got lose away for the 1st time this season but they still very much qualify as overachievers. but it be funny if i thought if i wasn't satisfied with the performances that we've we've had in the last couple weeks and also the points that we feel we've gained i think you
