I honestly can't believe Bayern scored 2 in the first 26 minutes then didn't manage just one more goal in 64 minutes.

Listen to the latest United Hour Podcast episode here. In it, Alex, Jamie and Nik revel in United's 3-2 victory over the old enemy in the FA Cup. The lads have high praise for Rashford, Pogba and even Ole himself, before they consider another draining midweek encounter, this time against the lowly Blades.
Awesome goal from Neuhaus and overall good performance from him (besides the one brainfart).
Stindl is always class, love him. Not quite at the 'top of the table' level but great for a team just under it like Gladbach.

Well, Bayern clearly didn't sign players which would improve them. Looking at minutes played: Roca 21, Chopou-Moting 120, Sarr 270, Costa 283. Only Sane played more (696) but I'm not sure if he's still the player he was before that bad injury.
What is the Bayern fans consensus on Flick?
Schalke have made it into the NYT! Today is the match where they can equal Tasmania's famous winless record that was supposed to stand for the ages.
This is the XI tasked with (not) writing history. Notice Becker and Hoppe: thos two are from Schalke's u23 in the fourth division.
Schalke Wars: A New Hoppe
Hoffenheim have no mercy, switching to a back 5 against the weakest attack in the league. Probably thinking they can just sit back and wait until Schalke tire out or give them a goal.
A bit early for this.

Hoffenheim's shirt is something else 
Kind of ridiculous how many good opportunities Hoffenheim have wasted and how pathetic Schalke play out their numerous counter attacks.

Schalke leading 1-0!
Apparently only the second time this season they're having a lead.

If I'm not mistaken they were leading against Stuttgart and Augsburg.
No idea, just what the Sky commentator mentioned.
Just checked, you are right, third time this season
It's not even that I necessarily want them to get relegated, but I will still be gutted if Schalke let it slip in the last game before the record.
You don't want them relegated? Just Like Hamburg a few years ago, I'd love them to go down. Can't really stand them.
Is it because Hitler used to support Schalke?
Don't ruin this Hoffenheim!
They have been working towards this crash for about 20 years and they thoroughly deserve to be relegated, but on the other hand the league would lose a lot if they go down.
I think it's wrong that they put the titles from that time onto their letter head, but I think as far as fans are concerned that's ancient history and Schalke's organized fans are among the ultra groups who are more committed against racism than a lot of others.
Feels odd to see Hoffenheim right down the table, only 5 points off relegation play off if things stay as it is.
If results stand Union Berlin up to 4th today!

2-0 Schalke
Hoppe scoring two clinical goals 
That has been Hoffenheim's usual domain between Rangnick and Nagelsmann.
3-0, what's happening?!
Hattrick Hoppe, whoever that is

Hat-trick for Hoppe
Won't get a new record now, sadly.

Hoppe's career stats:

Were some proper good finishes, too
Yeah, he's been looking completely lost whenever I've seen him play for the first team, but those finishes were absolutely clinical. Shows you how impactful the mental aspect of the game can be. Harit is another one. Looked completely done for months, but this game he's been destroying Hoffenheim's defense.Were some proper good finishes, too
Hoeness Jr not going to last much longer I suspect.Hoppe scoring two clinical goals
That has been Hoffenheim's usual domain between Rangnick and Nagelsmann.
Hoffenheim have been decimated by Corona infections and injuries this year, that will probably buy him some time.
Considering Leverkusen have lost their last two games and Union, Dortmund, Wolfsburg and Leipzig are their upcoming matches, they better grab that winner today.

Before that run the media was wondering whether they'd run into relegation trouble, now they are wondering whether they can make top 7.

There's Hoppe for Schalke after all.
Not sure how Leverkusen didn't get a penalty at the end, looked a pretty good shout for handball.
Bremen completely useless on the counter attack, couldn't even make basic passes last 10 minutes so looks like they'll be in yet another relegation battle.

No surprises here.
Kolasinac mentality making the difference for Schalke! Probably threatened them all midweek!
Don't bother - I tried something similar before the game even started. No bite.
You evil bastard. I feel humiliated.
RBL - BVB has not been a good game at all, sloppy from both teams.
Very cagey game to be honest, keepers have not really been tested. Think Red Bull Leipzig have slightly edge that. Haaland been non existent, Olmo bright spark in that half.
