Florian Wirtz: Florian Wirtz's late strike gave Bayer Leverkusen a 3-2 win over Borussia Monchengladbach as the 62nd Bundesliga season opened on Friday.

The titleholders got off to a fairytale start when Granit Xhaka pounced on a clearance to fire into the top left-hand corner from 20 meters after just 12 minutes.

Monchengladbach responded almost immediately, but Rocco Reitz couldn't beat custodian Lukas Hradecky from a tight angle, Xinhua news agency reported.
