Hoffenheim earned their first Europa League points with a 3-0 win over Lyon, according to Bulinews. The victory came after Hoffenheim's first away Bundesliga win and ended Lyon's perfect start in the Ligue 1. Hoffenheim had the best chances in the first half hour, with Alexander Prass and Robin Hranac coming close to scoring.

Andrej Kramarić scored the first goal just before halftime, capitalizing on Lyon's failure to clear a long throw-in, as reported by Bulinews. Lyon's goalkeeper, Dominik Greif, had made saves earlier in the half, and Oliver Baumann continued to make crucial saves from Keito Nakamura and Kail Boudache. Kramarić also assisted Adam Daghim's goal shortly after halftime.

Hoffenheim's lead was extended by Adam Hložek, who scored after being assisted by Kramarić again, according to Bulinews. Hoffenheim's next fixtures include hosting Bayer Leverkusen in the Europa League and facing Holstein Kiel in the DFB-Pokal. Their next European away game will be against Crystal Palace.

How we label and update stories

Source context

Hoffenheim followed their first away Bundesliga win with a comprehensive 3-0 victory over Lyon in the Europa League. Christian Ilzer's side registered their first points of the competition by ending the perfect start of the Ligue 1 leaders. Fresh from their vital Bundesliga win at Borussia Mönchengladbach, TSG Hoffenheim had the best chances of the game in the first half an hour. Alexander Prass and Robin Hranac came the closest to breaking the deadlock, but Dominik Greif was in good form in Lyon's goal. The 29-year-old goalkeeper also needed a lengthy medical treatment before his teammate Steeve Kango had to come off with an injury on his first appearance of the season, with those incidents led to eight minutes of injury-time.
