Berlin, Oct 20 Paderborn came from behind to stun Frankfurt 3-1 while Hoffenheim shared the spoils with Hamburg following a 1-1 draw to close the eighth round of the German Bundesliga.
Newly promoted Paderborn turned the tide at Frankfurt to snatch a victory on the road Sunday, reports Xinhua.
Both sides staged an unspectacular first half where goal-scoring opportunities remained a rare occurrence. However, things changed with the start of the second half.
Frankfurt controlled the proceedings at first half pace but they retracted after the break. Yet, they were able to break the deadlock out of the blue in the 57th minute.
Frankfurt's Alexander Meier made use of Takashi Inui's pass at the edge of the box to slot home with assistance of the inside of the right post.
Paderborn responded and restored parity in the 66th minute with a goal through substitute Marvin Ducksch, who was fielded just two minutes earlier.
Ducksch exploited a one-two with Stefan Kutschke to net into the top right corner.
Frankfurt tried to find an answer but it was the newly promoted visitors again who took the lead for the first time courtesy Uwe Huenemeier's goal from eleven metres in the 79th minute.
Paderborn were not done with the scoring as substitute Kutschke scored his brace to seal the deal for his team.
The victory moved Paderborn on seventh place while Frankfurt slipped to eighth.
Elsewhere, Hoffenheim squandered a neat victory as Hamburg's Pierre Michel Lasogga equalised the scores.
Hoffenheim caught a bright start and opened the scoring with 15 minutes into the game. Hoffenheim's Anthony Modeste completed a fast break by nutmegging Hamburg's goalkeeper Jaroslav Droby from very close range.
However, it was short-lived joy as Hamburg fought back at the half-hour mark when Lasogga equalised the scores.
Both sides pressed for the victory but all their efforts were in vain.
With the result Hamburg moved up to 16th position while unbeaten Hoffenheim slipped to third.
