Elsewhere, bottom side Paderborn clinched only their third win of the campaign after condemning struggling Eintracht Frankfurt to their third straight loss as the league heads into its winter break.

Paderborn started well and took the lead through Abdelhamid Sabiri with nine minutes played.

Frankfurt staged an uninspired performance while Paderborn doubled their advantage before the break through Sebastian Schonlau, who nodded home a free-kick.

The Eagles were able to halve the deficit out of the blue in the 72nd minute when Bas Dost tapped home Evan N'Dicka's pinpoint cross from close range.

However, Eintracht made too little of their momentum, allowing Paderborn to protect their narrow lead to the final whistle.

Despite their win, Paderborn are still five points from safety, while Eintracht Frankfurt slump to 13th in the Bundesliga standings.

The Bundesliga now goes into its winter break, and returns with the 18th round of matches on January 17, 2020.
