Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang struck twice as Borussia Dortmund took over at the top of the Bundesliga table with a 5-1 mauling of Wolfsburg on Tuesday night.

Full-backs Raphael Guerreiro and Lukasz Piszczek, as well as teenage forward Ousmane Dembele, were also on target as Dortmund gained revenge for their defeat to Wolfsburg in the final of the 2015 DFB-Pokal - Jurgen Klopp's last game in charge.

Daniel Didavi pulled a goal back for Wolfsburg but it was enough to deny Dortmund, who go top on goal difference after picking up their third win in four games.

Eintracht Frankfurt are also on nine points - along with Bayern Munich and Hertha Berlin who face each other on Wednesday night - after seeing off winless Ingolstadt 2-0.

David Abraham and Bastian Oczipka scored either side of half-time for Niko Kovac's men.

Hamburg are also still waiting for their first win of the campaign after falling to a 1-0 defeat at Freiburg which turns the heat up on their coach Bruno Labbadia.

Substitute Nils Petersen scored the only goal of the game almost immediately after coming on in the 69th minute, earning Freiburg their second win of the season and a place in the top half of the table.

In Tuesday night's other game, Darmstadt left it late to snatch a point at home to unbeaten Hoffenheim with Denys Oliynyk cancelling out Andrej Kramaric's opener with the last kick of the game.
