BERLIN -- Leipzigs fairytale start to the season continued Sunday as the side moved level on points with Bayern Munich at the top of the Bundesliga. Wholesale Netherlands Jerseys .A fully merited 3-1 home win over visiting Mainz extended Leipzigs record unbeaten start for a side playing its first-ever season in the Bundesliga to 10 games.The win puts pressure on Bayern, which drew 1-1 with Hoffenheim on Saturday and is top only by virtue of goal difference.Bayern and Hoffenheim are also unbeaten this season.After 10 games, Hoffenheim is third, ahead of Hertha Berlin which also has 20 points.Weve played less than a third of the league. Well see how long the situation continues, said Leipzig sporting director Ralf Rangnick, whose side also matched the 10-game unbeaten start by a promoted team that MSV Duisburg achieved 23 years ago.Leipzig was only founded in 2009.Timo Werner got his side off to a flying start in the third minute, when Emil Forsberg ran at the Mainz defense and eluded two defenders before Werner crossed his path to score.Forsberg made it 2-0 in the 21st, beating the hapless Giulio Donati to Werners cross for his fourth goal of the season.Werner should have grabbed his second shortly afterward as Leipzig threatened to run riot against the shaken visitors.It got worse for Mainz when midfielder Suat Serdar went off injured, forcing Martin Schmidt to bring on Yunus Malli, who was due a rest.Werner effectively ended the game before the break when he was again set up by Forsberg.Leipzig kept pushing after the interval. Werner almost scored again on the hour-mark when Donatis chest got in the way and Forsberg had another good chance shortly afterward.But Stefan Bells consolation in the 74th was the only goal of the second half.A fire alarm before the game caused the evacuation of the stadium to begin due to a serious technical disruption, only for it to be declared a false alarm minutes later.Rangnick had said talk of challenging Bayern was premature after the sides eighth game, a 3-1 win over Werder Bremen.I said before the season that the table can only be taken seriously after the 10th game. If were still there after the 10th round then you can really say were on the right path, Rangnick said at the time.---SCHALKE 3, WERDER BREMEN 1Alessandro Schoepf scored two and gave away a penalty as steadily improving Schalke claimed only its third league win.Schalke goalkeeper Ralf Faehrmann produced a fingertip save to deny Theodor Gebre Selassie early on, but it was the hosts which looked likelier to score, with Eric-Maxim Choupo-Moting going close.Schoepf broke the deadlock in the 35th, heading home the rebound after Max Meyer struck the crossbar, and Nabil Bentaleb made it 2-0 three minutes later, when he was first to react after Felix Wiedwald could only parry Naldos free kick.Then Schoepf gave away a penalty for bringing down Serge Gnabry. The Bremen forward dusted himself off to convert the spot kick and keep his side in the game.Schoepf atoned by restoring Schalkes two-goal cushion after the hour mark, firing inside the right post to leave Bremen coach Alexander Nouri casting his eyes to the sky.Bremen veteran Claudio Pizarro came on for his season debut with 20 minutes remaining but couldnt prevent the side slipping back into the relegation playoff spot.Schalke remained 12th. Markus Weinzierls side had started with five straight defeats. Cheap Netherlands Soccer Jerseys . PETERSBURG, Fla. Netherlands Jerseys From China . Ronaldo produced a spectacular individual performance on Tuesday, scoring all three goals and guiding Portugal into the next years World Cup in Brazil with a 3-2 victory in Sweden. The Real Madrid forward has scored 66 goals in 2013, but the last three may be the boost he needs to upstage Messi after FIFA unexpectedly extended the voting period for the Ballon dOr to Nov. http://www.cheapnetherlandsjerseys.com/ . It was Kerbers third final of the year after losing to Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova of Russia in Monterrey in April and to Petra Kvitova of Czech Republic in Tokyo two weeks ago. The 10th-ranked German improved her record in finals to 3-5. HOMESTEAD, Fla. --?Tony Stewart got out of his car and smiled.A 22nd-place finish wouldnt always result in a smile for the 45-year-old driver, a three-time Sprint Cup champion who ended his NASCAR career with 49 victories in 618 starts.But the smile wasnt necessarily for the 22nd-place finish. It was for all of the tributes and special moments that highlighted his day Sunday at Homestead-Miami Speedway.His car prior to the race was set apart from the rest, allowing friends and several people to come up for hugs and photos. He drove down pit road, giving crews high-fives, and led the field for a pace lap as the crowd cheered.It is still hard to digest it all right now, Stewart said moments after climbing out of his car. The whole day was awesome. You couldnt ask for it to be a better day. ... Probably the best part was your peers and fellow drivers and crew chiefs and crew members.Coming down pit road and high-fiving all those guys, it made me think back to when Dale Sr. won the Daytona 500. It was just an awesome moment.While Stewart wont race in Sprint Cup again, he will be back in the seat of a race car soon. He wouldnt say when, but the planned back surgery to remove screws from the fractured vertebra that held him out for the first eight races for the season has been scrapped.Stewarts first order of business will be his annual off-road trip, and then he will likely find himself in a sprint car at at a short track soon -- something he has not done in more than two years.No surgeries, Stewart said. Were free and clear this year on surgeries. I dont know [when Ill race again]. Stay tuned. .... Youth Netherlands Jerseys. It wont be long. We arent going to wait too long.As far as his final race, there wasnt a whole lot to talk about. Stewart was lapped in the first 75 laps and was two laps down at one point. But he was able to stay out when the caution flew in order to eventually get back on the lead lap.He even was a little bothered by where he was scored after a big wreck with 10 laps remaining.I raced, Stewart said. I did what I do every time I get into the car. I didnt think of anything else other than racing the race. We got behind there and tried something to make ground and had to run 60 laps on a set of tires.At the end, the lineup there was, lets, say, confusing. I was still screaming about that just like I would on every other race. I was true to form all the way to the end.But Stewart will get over it. He had a career in which he posted 187 top-fives and 308 top-10s in 618 career starts. He finished his final season 15th in the standings, thanks to making the Chase with the win in June at Sonoma Raceway.Im proud, Stewart said. Its been an awesome 21 years racing in NASCAR in the Xfinity Series and the Cup Series. ... I said all year I just wanted to be one of the guys racing and to be put out there [on that pace lap], its an honor ,but its humbling at the same time.Stewart felt honored in one other way -- he raced in the event where Jimmie Johnson won a record-tying seventh championship.I was glad to race with him on the day he got his seventh, Stewart said. Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys From China Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic Wholesale Jerseys China Cheap NFL Jerseys China NFL Cheap Jerseys ' ' '
