BERLIN -- Borussia Moenchengladbach outclassed Cologne to win the Rhine derby 3-0 and leave the visitors mired in the Bundesligas relegation zone on Sunday. Cameron Heyward Authentic Jersey . The return of Frank Schaefer as interim coach in place of Stale Solbakken, who was sacked Thursday, failed to prevent Cologne slumping to its 18th defeat of the season. Juan Arango fired Borussia ahead with a precise free kick in the 19th minute, Tony Jantschke made it 2-0 in the 53rd and Marco Reus completed the scoring two minutes later. Moenchengladbach moved to within a point of third-place Schalke in the automatic Champions League spot. "Everything is possible," Borussia coach Lucien Favre said. "But were still only thinking from game to game." Moenchengladbachs next game is at Borussia Dortmund, which will have clinched the title if Bayern Munich fails to beat Werder Bremen in its earlier game next Saturday. Cologne is four points from safety in the playoff place, one ahead of Hertha Berlin with three rounds remaining. "Our only target left now is to defend this place," Cologne goalkeeper Michael Rensing said. Freiburg later extended its unbeaten run to eight games after drawing 0-0 with Hoffenheim to move seven points above Cologne. Hoffenheim goalkeeper Tom Starke denied Daniel Caligiuri shortly before the Freiburg midfielder hit the post in the 73rd. Former Freiburg player Daniel Williams came closest to scoring for the visitors when he hit the side-netting late in the game. "Im happy with the point," Caligiuri said. "Cologne messed up and every point is important." Rensings flying save denied a fantastic volley from Mike Hanke in the third minute of the 80th Rhine derby, but there was little he could do to stop Arangos free kick from a central position going over the wall and inside the right post. Rensing was alert to tip Reus effort over the bar shortly afterward, and he denied Hanke in the 40th after Reus had pressured Henrique Sereno into giving the ball away. The visitors came closest after the break, when Lukas Podolski and Milivoje Novakovic had shots blocked. Jantschke scored his first goal since December 2008 when he met Reus free kick with a glancing header. Reus then scored again. Surrounded by defenders, the Germany international played the ball through the legs of Geromel and Sereno before slotting it beyond Rensing for his 16th goal of the season. Rensing prevented Arango from making it 4-0 in the 70th, and then produced a fantastic reflex to block Roel Brouwers header shortly afterward. Colognes afternoon was best summed up when Podolskis free kick from a promising position went out for a Moenchengladbach throw in. Gold Le Veon Bell Limited Mens Jersey . Showing more spark after not taking enough challenging shots on goal in their 1-0 loss Friday night, the Bruins had 18 shots in the first period after managing just 25 in the entire opener. Luke Glendening cut Bostons lead to 2-1 at 13:20 of the second period before Milan Lucic scored late in the second and Zdeno Chara added a power-play goal early in the third. Antonio Brown Authentic Jersey . PAUL, Minn.BILBAO, Spain - Athletic Bilbao striker Aritz Aduriz scored a hat trick to lead a 4-0 rout of 10-man Granada at home Friday, as the Basque side strengthened its hold on Spains last Champions League berth for next season. Aduriz headed home Markel Susaetas cross in the sixth minute to open the scoring at San Mames Stadium. He bettered that with a long-range blast that went in off the goal frame in the 18th, and converted a penalty in the 72nd after Diego Mainz was sent off for fouling Aduriz with only the goalkeeper to beat. Bilbao defender Carlos Gurpegi capped the win in the 80th with a volley from outside the box. Bilbao could have won by a wider margin if it hadnt been for goalkeeper Roberto Fernandez. Granada didnt muster a shot on goal. Bilbaos first victory in its last three home games left it in fourth place and seven points ahead of Villarreal and Real Sociedad before they play matcches Sunday. Heath Miller Authentic Jersey. Real Madrid leads the league by three points over Atletico Madrid and Barcelona, and all three front-runners are far ahead of Bilbao and the other teams fighting for fourth place and the final Champions League spot. "Im happy the team won again," Aduriz said. "To stay at the top you have to keep winning week after week. There is a long way to go and it will be very tough, because there are some good teams in the fight. But we will give it our all to stay in fourth place." Granadas fifth consecutive loss away from home left it in five points from the relegation zone. Madrid visits Atletico on Sunday, when Barcelona hosts Almeria. Also, Sociedad plays at Sevilla, Villarreal hosts Real Betis, and Valencia is at Rayo Vallecano. On Saturday, its: Malaga vs. Valladolid, Levante vs. Osasuna, Getafe vs. Espanyol, and Elche vs. Celta Vigo. ' ' '
