Harry Kane rescues Bayern Munich as winning run comes to an end
Bundesliga leaders Bayern Munich needed a last-minute Harry Kane header to rescue a point from a 2-2 draw at Union Berlin as their record winning run came to an end.
Kane’s 23rd goal of the season was Bayern’s second equaliser on the night, with Danilho Doekhi scoring either side of Luis Diaz’s first-half equaliser.
Bayern saw a run of 16 straight wins to start the campaign come to an end but extended their advantage at the top of the Bundesliga to six points as second-placed RB Leipzig lost 3-1 to Hoffenheim.
Leipzig led through Yan Diomande nine minutes in, but the hosts hit back through Albian Hajdari, Tim Lemperle and Grischa Promel.
Borussia Dortmund missed the chance to go second as Ransford Konigsdorffer scored a 90th-minute equaliser for Hamburg in a 1-1 draw. Carney Chukwuemeka had put Dortmund ahead in the 64th minute.
Bayer Leverkusen thrashed Heidenheim 6-0 and Borussia Monchengladbach beat Cologne 3-1.
Antoine Griezmann came off the bench to hit a second-half double which gave Atletico Madrid a 3-1 win over Levante in LaLiga.
The 34-year-old scored his first goal barely 30 seconds after coming on, putting Atletico back in front after Manu Sanchez cancelled out an early own goal from Adrian De La Fuente.
Atletico stayed fourth as Villarreal won 2-0 at Espanyol to go above Barcelona into second place. Gerard Moreno and Alberto Moleiro got the goals in either half.
Ruben Vargas hit a 51st-minute penalty to give Sevilla a 1-0 win over Osasuna, while Viktor Tsygankov’s 16th-minute goal was enough for Girona to beat Alaves 1-0.
AC Milan blew a 2-0 lead in a 2-2 draw with Parma as all of Serie A’s four games finished all square.
Milan appeared to be in control as Alexis Saelemaekers struck early before Rafael Leao’s 25th-minute penalty made it 2-0, but Adrian Bernabe got one back in first-half stoppage time before Enrico Del Prato levelled.
Milan moved top of Serie A on goals scored, but Napoli, Inter Milan and Roma could all go above them on Sunday.
Juventus slipped off the pace as they were held to a goalless draw by Torino in the derby match at the Allianz Stadium.
Indeed goals were in short supply in Serie A, with Como and Cagliari, and Lecce and Hellas Verona also playing out 0-0 draws.
Marseille bounced back from their midweek Champions League frustration against Atalanta to return to the top of Ligue 1 – at least temporarily – with a 3-0 win over Brest as Angel Gomes, Mason Greenwood and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang got the goals.
Lens stunned Monaco with a 4-1 win in the Principality. Folarin Balogun’s penalty cancelled out Odsonne Edouard’s 21st-minute opener but Wesley Said put the visitors back in front five minutes before the break and Balogun was then sent off for a foul on Mamadou Sangare before the break.
Sangare got his revenge with a third Lens goal in first-half stoppage time before Said sealed it on the hour mark.
Gautier Lloris scored in stoppage time to rescue a point for Le Havre in a 1-1 draw with Nantes, who took the lead through Matthis Abline just four minutes in.
