Description

Alex returns to Going Deutsch as the top three tiers of German football return from their international break: Steffen Tigges is the striker who turns up against his former club as Köln beat Dortmund 3-2, Urs Fischer does not get to celebrate a new contract in style, Union lose 2-0 to Frankfurt but retain top spot in the Bundesliga, and Thomas Letsch has a less than ideal opening game as his Bochum side lose 4-0 to Leipzig. Lower down: Darmstadt move into second in the 2. Bundesliga after a win against Paderborn, both Bielefeld and Fürth continue to struggle, and 1860 Munich go top of the 3. Liga. Also on the pod: Jude Bellingham's historic moment, German fans say goodbye to Piza, and St. Pauli and Heidenheim get stage fright on the Sport1 Saturday night game.
