Hertha BSC Berlin 1 - 4 Monchengladbach: Borussia Monchengladbach beat Hertha Berlin for sixth successive victory

Borussia Monchengladbach picked up their sixth win in a row with a 4-1 triumph at Hertha Berlin to move up to fourth in the Bundesliga.

Two goals in as many minutes saw Borussia Monchengladbach gain control of the game at the Olympiastadion.

Oscar Wendt gave them the lead in the 26th minute with a powerful shot which struck the inside of the post on its way in.

Better was to come from Raffael when he dribbled his way through most of the Berlin team, getting away with one fortunate rebound before seeing his shot take a deflection on its way past Rune Jarstein.

Granit Xhaka added a third from the penalty spot before Alexander Baumjohann pulled one back also from the spot.

However, Havard Nordtveit added his name to the scoresheet in stoppage time to seal another comprehensive win for Andre Schubert's men.
