On Sunday, two remaining round matches took place in the Bundesliga championship - the eighth season victory allowed "Stuttgart" club to keep up with the leaders and continue to fight for the title, which is very intense this season so far.
"Stuttgart" team at home narrowly defeated the struggling "Gladbach" club with a minimal result. The only goal of the match was scored by Cacau at the very beginning of the game, redirecting the ball that bounced off the crossbar into the goal from close range. After the victory, Stuttgart players collected 27 points and maintained the third position, with only two points behind the leaders, "Schalke" club.
In the other duel, "Bayer" club won the victory, defeating newcomers "Cottbus" at home with a score of 3-1. Around twenty minutes into the game, S.Barbarez, who joined the club this summer, scored a goal from 14 meters, putting the hosts ahead. Shortly after the break, during a counterattack, the most productive "Cottbus" player V.Munteanu equalized the score, but the guests were unable to win points in this match - in the 66th minute, S.Roflesas put "Bayer" ahead with a great strike from distance, and at the end of the match A.Voroninas, who played his 100th Bundesliga match, secured the victory.
