"Leverkusen dispensed with the services of former Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag on September 1 after claiming one point from their first two games. He was replaced by Kasper Hjulmand, and the former Denmark boss tasted victory in his opening game despite Leverkusen finishing the game with nine men. Alejandro Grimaldo dipped a 10th-minute free-kick into the right-hand corner to open the scoring, and Leverkusen's lead was doubled in first-half stoppage time when Patrik Schick converted from the penalty spot."
"Can Yilmaz Uzun pulled one back for Frankfurt, and the visitors were given further hope when Robert Andrich was sent off for a second bookable offence. Ezequiel Fernandez followed Andrich down the tunnel in the 92nd minute when he received a second caution, but Leverkusen hung on and Grimaldo sent the BayArena into raptures six minutes later as he curled a second free-kick into the top-right corner to seal victory."
"Marseille prepared for a clash with Real Madrid in the Champions League in style as they put 10-man Lorient to the sword. Darlin Yongwa was sent off in the 10th minute for pulling down Timothy Weah inside the box, with Mason Greenwood converting the subsequent penalty. Benjamin Pavard made it 2-0 in the 20th minute, marking his Marseille debut with a header from Greenwood's corner."
