John Anthony Brooks:  Borussia Dortmund moves atop the standings for the moment after goals from Niclas Fullkrug, Marco Reus and Julian Ryerson provided a 3-1 victory over wasteful Hoffenheim at the curtain raiser of the Bundesliga sixth round.

The BVB assumed control from the kick-off and almost opened the scoring with 15 minutes played as Donyell Malen's effort forced Hoffenheim goalkeeper Oliver Baumann into action, reports Xinhua.

However, Baumann was hapless three minutes later when Julian Brandt dispossessed John Anthony Brooks, allowing Fullkrug to score his first goal in the BVB dress.
