With two matches to play, the Bundesliga’s relegation race is muddled and the European battle is set to go down to the wire.
There’s Bayern at the top, Koln at the bottom, and mostly chaos in between.

Mainz 3-0 RB Leipzig
A seismic statement from Mainz, who greeted Hamburg’s hot streak with a convincing win that moved it five points clear of automatic relegation and three above the playoff spot.
Pablo De Blasis converted a 29th minute penalty kick to give Mainz an advantage that would later be buttressed by a pair of goals in the final five minutes from Alexandru Maxim and Bote Baku.
Now RB Leipzig, last year’s surprise runners-up, are on the precipice of missing out on European play altogether. Sixth-place Leipzig needs collapses from Hoffenheim and Bayer Leverkusen to finish Top Four, and could finish as low as bottom half with poor performances against Wolfsburg and Hertha Berlin.

Wolfsburg 1-3 Hamburg
The wobbly seasons continue for Wolfsburg, and this one features a massive six-point loss to Hamburg Sunday.
American striker Bobby Wood converted a 43rd minute penalty -- U.S. teammate John Anthony Brooks was on the bench for Wolfsburg -- and the hosts could never get level in allowing their visitors to get within two points of 16th place.
