RB Leipzig won 3-0 at Union Berlin at the end of the third day of the German championship, leaving Bayern Munich and Bayer Leverkusen alone in control of the Bundesliga.
Leipzig, who inflicted on the Union their first home defeat in the Bundesliga for more than 18 months, found the fault in the Berlin defense in the 51st minute with a superb strike from Xavi Simons, ideally served by Benjamin Henrichs at the entrance of the penalty area.
In numerical superiority after the exclusion of Kevin Volland in the 64th minute, the men of Marco Rose took shelter in the last minutes thanks to a double from Benjamin Sesko realized in the space of two minutes (85th and 87th ).
Leipzig thus joins the long list of six teams in 3rd place in the Bundesliga with six points and two victories, behind the leading duo composed of Bayer Leverkusen and Bayern Munich, alone with a clear course of three victories in the evening of the third day.
