Borussia Dortmund started life without Lucien Favre on a winning note after edging Werder Bremen 2-1 in Tuesday evening's Bundesliga action.
Favre was sacked on Sunday following a 5-1 home loss to VfB Stuttgart, with interim manager Edin Terzic tasked to lead the Black and Yellow on a temporary basis.
Raphael Guerreiro gave Dortmund the lead in the first 12 minutes, but the home side snatched a comeback through Kevin Mohwald before Marco Reus secured the second.
The latter could've had a brace from the penalty spot late on in the match, but missed leaving his side to victory nonetheless.
VfB Stuttgart engineered a late comeback to force a 2-2 draw against an impressive Union Berlin outfit on their own turf.
Marvin Friedrich gave the visitors the perfect start earlier on with Liverpool loanee Taiwo Awoniyi netting the second in the latter stages of the second half.
Stuttgart launched a response courtesy of Sasa Kalajdzic, who went and bagged a second in stoppage time to force a share of the spoils.
A ten-man Eintracht Frankfurt squandered a narrow lead for a 3-3 draw against Borussia Monchengladbach.
Andre Silva's first half brace for the home side and the other strike from Aymen Barkok were stamped out by a second half hat-trick from Lars Stindl.
Eintracht also finished the match with a player less after David Abraham got a second bookable offence towards the end, as it ended honours even.
Hertha Berlin's inconsistent run of form continued after playing to a goalless draw against second-bottom Mainz 05 in a bottom-half battle.
Hertha, who picked up their third win against Union Berlin two weeks ago, missed numerous chances for the winner as did the visitors leaving the spoils shared in the end.
