Bayer Leverkusen vs. Eintracht Frankfurt

Stefan Kießling, Stefan Reinartz and Toni Kross bagged goals within the first 11 minutes of the match at the BayArena to immediately put Frankfurt out of the match, and Lars Bender's late goal capped off the dominant performance.

The scoring began inside two minutes when influential Swiss midfielder Tranquillo Barnetta headed a pass into the path of Kießling, who blasted home for his league-best eighth goal of the season.

Four minutes later, Reinartz doubled the advantage when he got his head to a cross from Barnetta's service, and Kroos made it 3-0 on 11 minutes after a deflected pass by Kießling fell into his path.

It could have been four when Christoph Spycher knocked Sami Hyypiä's rising header off the line later in the first half, but Leverkusen were never in danger.

The action calmed after the break, but it stayed in favor of Leverkusen. They were rewarded with their fourth goal just four minutes from the end when Bender raced in on goal before dispatching a shot past debutant goalkeeper Ralf Fährmann.

The win kept Levekrusen unbeaten in 12 matches this season, while Frankfurt sit in 10th place before the rest of this weekend's action.
