BERLIN: Stuttgart routed Borussia Dortmund 5-1 to extend the home sides winless run in the Bundesliga to three games on Saturday.

American Gio Reyna scored a brilliant equalizer in the 39th minute for Dortmund, but it was the only highlight in a game to forget for Lucien Favres team.

It was Stuttgarts first win over Dortmund in 14 years.

Silas Wamangituka put the visitors ahead with a penalty in the 27th, before the 18-year-old Reyna equalized when he took Raphal Guerreiros ball over the top brilliantly with his first touch, then flicked it past goalkeeper Gregor Kobel with his next.

Stuttgart had twice as many shots on goal in the first half, however, and the promoted side made them count in the second. Wamangituka grabbed his second goal in the 53rd, Philipp Frster was allowed score in the 60th, then Wamangituka set up Tanguy Coulibaly in the 63rd.

Jadon Sancho missed a good chance for Dortmund before Reyna had a goal ruled out through VAR as substitute Youssoufa Moukoko was offside in the buildup.

Nicolas Gonzalez completed the rout in injury time.

Leipzig moved top with a 2-0 win at home over Werder Bremen, Borussia Mnchengladbach drew with Hertha Berlin 1-1, Freiburg defeated Arminia Bielefeld 2-0 and Cologne won at Mainz 1-0.

Union Berlin was hosting Bayern Munich later, when the visitors can reclaim top spot.
