Elversberg beats Borussia Mönchengladbach 4-3 in Bundesliga comeback
Summary

Newly-promoted SV Elversberg secured a 4-3 win against Borussia Mönchengladbach on Saturday after trailing by two goals midway through the second half. Maurice Krattenmacher scored twice, including the winning goal in stoppage time, while Felix Keidel added a free-kick to spark the comeback. The victory marks the club's second straight win to open the Bundesliga season following an opening-day defeat of Bayer Leverkusen. Head coach Vincent Wagner was sent off after a halftime protest regarding a controversial goal from Hugo Bolin that followed an uncalled throw-in violation. Wagner later credited his side's mental composure and the impact of substitutes for the result. The club maintains a perfect record in the German top flight after its first two matches.
