BERLIN -- Bayern Munich routed Wolfsburg 5-0 and took advantage of Leipzigs first defeat to replace the promoted side at the top of the Bundesliga on Saturday.Leipzigs record 13-game unbeaten start was finally ended in a 1-0 loss at coach Ralph Hasenhuettls former side Ingolstadt, which had been bottom but climbed one place.Defeats always hurt, regardless against whom, said Hasenhuettl, who led Ingolstadt to promotion in 2015.Midfielder Rogers early header was enough to end Leipzigs eight-game winning run and give Ingolstadt its second win in four games under new coach Maik Walpurgis.The game ended on a turbulent note when Emil Forsberg missed a great chance to equalize and players on both sides received yellow cards after a melee. Ingolstadts Mathew Leckie was sent off in injury time.A wonderful match day, said Bayern chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge, whose rivals all dropped points. Ingolstadt will get a truckload of white sausage and wheat-beer from us.In Munich, Thomas Mueller scored his first league goal since April as Bayern returned to the top with a comfortable win over crisis-hit Wolfsburg.Now were leaders and that will certainly do our Christmas party this evening good, said Mueller, who had gone 999 minutes without scoring. Its nice the goal drought is now over. It wasnt so important to me but I know others made a big deal of it.Arjen Robben opened the scoring with a curling effort inside the far post from a difficult angle in the 18th minute and Robert Lewandowski doubled the lead from close range three minutes later.Its brutal, its depressing when it starts like that, former Bayern striker Mario Gomez said of his return.Lewandowski grabbed his second goal early in the second half when he deflect Muellers shot inside the left post.Mueller, who scored 32 goals across all competitions for Bayern last season, then ended his goal drought by deflecting Robbens effort past the helpless Diego Benaglio, and Douglas Costa completed the Wolfsburg goalkeepers miserable afternoon with a fine strike in the final minutes.After 14 games, Bayern leads on goal difference from Leipzig. Only goal difference was separating Wolfsburg from the relegation zone.Heres a look at other games:COLOGNE 1, BORUSSIA DORTMUND 1Dortmund was headed for its fourth defeat of the season until Marco Reus struck in the final minute for his first league goal since returning from injury last month.Artjoms Rudnevs was left alone to head Cologne in front before the half-hour mark from Jonas Hectors free kick.Dortmund dominated possession but failed going forward until the end. Adrian Ramos crossed for Reus to slot the equalizer inside the right post.It was Reus first league goal since the 2-2 draw with Cologne in the final round last season.Cologne midfielder Salih Ozcan was sent off with his second yellow card in injury time.Dortmund dropped eight points behind Bayern and Leipzig, while Cologne stayed seventh after its ninth straight unbeaten game at home.HERTHA BERLIN 0, WERDER BREMEN 1Max Kruses strike before the break was enough for Bremen to beat third-place Hertha and climb four points above the relegation zone with its first away win of the season.Herthas defense was at fault with Niklas Stark losing the ball for Kruse to grab his second goal in as many games.Hes young. Thats the time to make mistakes, Hertha coach Pal Derdai said of his defender.Led by veteran forward Claudio Pizarro, Bremen missed good chances to extend the lead.Hertha had previously won all six games at home this season.HAMBURGER SV 1, AUGSBURG 0Hamburg forward Lewis Holtby left his side an uphill task before the break when he was sent off for elbowing Dominik Kohr in the face after he was fouled by the Augsburg midfielder.But Kohr received his second yellow card midway through the second half and Filip Kostic scored two minutes later on a rebound after Nicolai Muellers effort hit the post.It was enough for Hamburg to climb into the relegation playoff place, one point above Ingolstadt and two above Darmstadt, which lost 1-0 at Freiburg.Nils Petersens late penalty was enough for Freiburg.

PEORIA, Ariz. -- Tim Tebow remains hitless in the Arizona Fall League as the ex-quarterback heads to Knoxville for Saturdays SEC football showdown between top-ranked Alabama and No. 9 Tennessee.Tebow went 0-for-3 with a walk, two strikeouts and a run scored Thursday as the designated hitter for the Scottsdale Scorpions in a 5-2 loss to the Peoria Javelinas.Through three games in the league for top prospects, Tebow is now 0-for-9 with three strikeouts, two walks and an RBI. All of his six outs put in play have been hit to the right side of the infield -- two grounders to second base, three to first base and a squibber in front of the plate. He manned left field in his opening two games.Im getting adjusted. I need to get back into the rhythm, Tebow said. I was a little late on a couple of fastballs I could have done something with.Scottsdale hitting coach Damon Minor, who played parts of four seasons with the San Francisco Giants, said, He hasnt done it in a while. ... Hes very athletic, and you can tell he competes.Tebow is excused from Friday and Saturday AFL games because of his ESPN broadcasting responsibilities. The AFL is dark on Sundays, so Tebow will resume his baseball pursuit on Monday.Coincidentally, the New York Jets -- one of Tebows former employers -- will be playing nearby against the Arizona Cardinals?on Monday. However, Tebow will be unable to attend because the Scorpions have the AFLs lone night game on Monday.Tebow signed a minor league deal for $100,000 with the Mets last month.The progress is being made, said Scottsdale manager Tom Goodwin, who also serves as the first-base coach for the Mets. Its slowly but surely coming along. Hes got some TV obligations to fulfill, and hell come back Monday and hell be ready to go.ddddddddddddGoodwin said Tebow does not seem overmatched.Im sure hes said it to you before: Hes missing pitches that he should hit, Goodwin said. Hes rolling over [pitches] right now. Thats going to happen, because youre anxious up there. You want to hit the ball. So you go out and get it instead of letting it travel a little deeper.Every time he comes out and plays, I would expect him to get better at that. And then hes going to have to learn, when he gets his pitch to hit, to not miss it. There are a couple of balls, Im sure, he feels he should have hit that hes not hitting. Thats a part of baseball. Thats a part of learning your strike zone and learning your bat path, and then putting a good swing on the ball that happens to be in your path.The employees at Peoria Sports Complex, the spring training home of the Seattle Mariners and San Diego Padres, had fun each time Tebow stepped to the plate during Thursdays AFL game. The scoreboard listed Tebows career statistics as TD 17, INT 9, YDS 2,422.Despite the initial on-field struggles, Tebow had an eventful opening week in the AFL. When a 30-year-old autograph seeker suffered a seizure after Tebows AFL debut on Tuesday, the ex-quarterback stayed with the man and prayed for his well-being until paramedics arrived.Tebow said he is not discouraged by his hitless opening week in the AFL.Its too much of a process, Tebow said. After everything Ive been through in sports, I wouldnt be up and down over three games. ' ' '
