Bundesliga: Leipzig makes winning start without Werner

The Hindu  

RB Leipzig eased past Mainz 05 3-1 in its Bundesliga opener on Sunday to enjoy a successful start to league life without striker Timo Werner. Werner joined Chelsea in the close season and missed its run to the Champions League semi-finals in August but Leipzig had little trouble finding the back of the net against Mainz, striking twice in four minutes. With Mainz struggling to find ways of stopping Leipzig, Forsberg almost scored again on the half-hour mark when he dribbled past two opponents but his clever flick bounced off the post. READ | Mainz cut the deficit three minutes after the restart when Quaison threaded a ball through the entire Leipzig defence for Jean-Philippe Mateta to score with a fine finish.
