Bundesliga champions Bayer Leverkusen lost 3-2 to RB Leipzig at home on Saturday, their first loss in the German top flight since May 2023, ending a 35-match unbeaten run.
In a volatile match which saw visiting coach Marco Rose sent to the stands in the first half, Leverkusen jumped out to a 2-0 lead thanks to goals from Jeremie Frimpong and Alex Grimaldo.
Kevin Kampl scored for Leipzig against the run of play just before half-time and Lois Openda levelled things up early in the second period.
