Nurnberg hands Leverkusen first loss

Soccer Betting Lines

03/07/2010 - Nurnberg, Germany (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting scored twice in the closing minutes of the first half, Mikael Tavares added a goal 10 minutes after the break, and Nurnberg held on to hand Bayer Leverkusen its first loss of the season, 3-2 on Sunday at Franken Stadion.

Choupo-Moting scored in the 42nd and 45th, and Tavares put Nurnberg in control before Stefan Kiessling scored his Bundesliga-leading 14th and Patrick Helmes added his first of the season.

Leverkusen couldn't finish the comeback, and wasted a chance to regain the top spot in the Bundesliga. Bayern Munich moved into first last week, but settled for a 1-1 draw against Koln on Saturday.

Bayer Leverkusen would have returned to the top with a victory but had its 24- game, season-long unbeaten streak snapped by relegation-threatened Nurnberg.

Nurnberg jumped Hannover and Freiburg to move out of the drop zone but is just one point ahead of those two, and six ahead of last-place Hertha Berlin.

Choupo-Moting sliced through Leverkusen central defenders Manuel Friedrich and Sami Hyypia to beat German goalie Rene Adler for the opener, then took a pass from Dennis Diekmeier three minutes later and finished to the top corner.

Tavares added Nurnberg's third in the 55th when he scored into the lower-right corner, and the struggling side appeared to be in complete control.

Kiessling got one back in the 66th when he turned a pass from Gonzalo Castro past Nurnberg goalkeeper Rafael Schafer, and Helmes took advantage of a poor clearance seven minutes later to convert a low shot.

Leverkusen continued to push for the equalizer but, just one week after losing the top spot, slipped to third in the league behind Bayern and Schalke.

Aristide Bance scored his team-high seventh goal as Mainz defeated Hoffenheim 1-0 Rhein-Neckar-Arena to move up to eighth. Mainz is level with seventh-place Stuttgart on points, and just seven points out of a Europe League berth.
