EURO ROUND-UP

In the Bundesliga, Dani Olmo’s solitary strike with 14 minutes remaining at the Mercedes-benz Stadium was enough to propel RB LEIPZIG one point clear at the top of the Bundesliga.

Hosts VFB STUTTGART kept things tight for most of the game, but eventually succumbed to the pressure.

BAYER LEVERKUSEN slipped to third place after going down 2-1 at EINTRACHT FRANKFURT.

It all started well for Leverkusen at the Deutsche Bank Park as they took the lead after just nine minutes through Nadiem Amri.

However, by 22 minutes, it was all square thanks to Amin Younes’ leveller. The home side’s winner was a disaster for visiting defender Edmon Tapsoba, who turned the ball into his own net on 54 minutes.
