Last season’s Bundesliga top scorer Alex Meier celebrated his comeback following knee surgery in April in style, notching a hat-trick as Eintracht Frankfurt crushed Cologne 6-2 to move into fourth place on seven points, while Hertha Berlin defeated VfB Stuttgart 2-1 at home.

Dortmund pressed Hannover into to defence but after all the “BVB” had to wait until the 35th minute before Hannover’s Felipe fouled Jonas Hoffman to cause a foul play penalty.

“The muscles are a little exhausted but it’s OK”.

“What’s happening here is a fine example”, Mr Niersbach said.

Leverkusen will try to bounce back from their first loss as promoted Darmstadt, who have drawn their opening three games, make the trip to the BayArena.

Germany’s exemplary role in welcoming refugees fleeing their war torn countries continued as each Bayern player walked onto the pitch holding hands with both a German child and a young migrant ahead of the game against Augsburg.

The home side dominated possession but struggled to make leeway early on.

Bayern face FC Augsburg this weekend, aiming to continue their 100% record this season.

Guardiola also confirmed 19-year-old Kingsley Coman, who joined Bayern on a two-year loan from Juventus last month, would be included in Saturday’s match plans.

Even though Bayern pressed frenetically for the leveller after the restart, they had to wait until the 77th minute before Lewandowski made use of Mueller’s rebound to tap in from very close range.
