Unbeaten Leipzig continued its impressive start in its first Bundesliga season by beating Augsburg 2-1 to move to provisional third on Friday. Leipzig, founded in 2009 when energy-drink manufacturer Red Bull rebranded fifth-tier side SSV Markranstaedt and financed its speedy promotion as a new entity through the lower leagues, is the first promoted side in the Bundesliga to remain unbeaten after six games. Emil Forsberg fired the home side ahead, continuing Leipzig's recent trend of scoring early after the 1-1 draws against Cologne and Borussia Moenchengladbach.
