Red Bull Arena: RB Leipzig tightened their grip on a Champions League place with a controlled 3-1 home victory over Union Berlin as Max Finkgrafe, Romulo and Ridle Baku scored before Danilho Doekhi's late consolation.

Already assured of at least sixth place and a return to European competition after a one-year absence, Leipzig moved to 62 points in third. Ole Werner's side began the round five points clear of fifth-placed TSG Hoffenheim and quickly showed why their momentum has put them on course for Europe's elite competition.

Union, still seeking a first win under new head coach Marie-Louise Eta, arrived winless in four league matches. After creating 27 shots in defeat against Wolfsburg in Eta's debut, they were again pushed back early at the Red Bull Arena, reports Xinhua.
