Borussia Dortmund carved out a 1-0 victory over visiting VfL Wolfsburg on Sunday, thanks to Karim Adeyemi’s first-half missile to climb into second place in the Bundesliga.
Dortmund, fresh from its Champions League 4-4 draw at Juventus in midweek, stretched its unbeaten league run to 12 matches, including last season.
It bagged the three points after the German international, who also scored against Juve, unleashed a ferocious shot that hit a speed of 125 kmh.

Maximilian Beier came close to a second goal in the 34th but his header was narrowly off the mark.
The host had a dominant first half before Wolfsburg hit the woodwork through Kostantinos Koulierakis after the break in its best chance of the game.
Koulierakis also saw his low shot fly wide of the post in the 90th as Wolfsburg suffered its first defeat of the season.
Champion Bayern Munich is in top spot on 12 points after its 4-1 victory at Hoffenheim thanks to Harry Kane’s hat-trick.
