Bayern Lose Again; Hamburg Top

Ten-man VfL Wolfsburg missed their chance to go third in the Bundesliga with a 2-1 defeat at Karlsruhe on Sunday after defending champions Bayern Munich suffered their second consecutive league defeat.
Having smashed minnows Oberneuland 7-0 in the German Cup in midweek, Wolfsburg were brought crashing down to earth when Karlsruhe midfielder Massimilian Porcello curled in a free-kick on 51 minutes to take a 1-0 lead.
