The 13th match day of this Bundesliga season was not short on surprising events: there was the 4:0 thrashing that Schalke 04 dished out to Werder Bremen, with Raul really giving us a great show; then there was another 4:0 hammering, with TSG Hoffenheim playing away at Frankfurt and beating them senseless – not many saw that one coming. Meanwhile, more predictably, Borussia Dortmund stayed at the top of the league following a 2:1 victory away at Freiburg, even if this was more luck than skill.
