Bundesliga Matchday 14 Roundup - Dortmund Back on Top for Now

 Matchday 14 is in the books, Borussia Dortmund has regained the top spot in the Bundesliga, leading Gladbach in goal difference and Bayern Muenchen by one point.  Bayern had an opportunity to maintain a two point lead, but Mainz 05, with a brilliant and spirited performance stopped the record Champions league run away. 

 Borussia gained the top spot after defeating Koeln by three goals to nil yesterday.  The top six clubs in the league are not separated by many points, Bremen defeated Stuttgart on Sunday, trailing Bayern by two points.   Those that thought that Munich would be the run away league champion better think again.  The performance demonstrated in the Bundesliga this year doesn't get much better.  With only three matches remaining to the winter break, the spring round could prove to be rather exciting.

Nuernberg managed to move up to 13th spot after defeating Kaiserslautern with a one goal margin.  Freiburg managed a 1-2 draw at Hoffenheim, with the hope of moving out of the relegation zone by the time the winter break rolls around.

FC Augsburg registered its second win of the season, defeating Wolfsburg by 2-0.  Perhaps it will be a sign of things to come.  Is Augsburg finally adjusting to the Bundesliga?  Leverkusen lost some ground this week.  After a successful Champions League campaign against Chelsea, the side only managed a draw against Berlin. 

With the games of Matchday 14 in the history books, only seven points separate the top 6 teams.  The relegation battle will also get exciting with only Only four points separate 11th and 18th place.  . There is still plenty of excitement left for the top and bottom of the league.
