BERLIN (Reuters) - RB Leipzig struck twice in the first half to edge past visitors Heidenheim 2-1 on Saturday and leapfrog Borussia Dortmund into fourth place in the Bundesliga.

The hosts took a 29th-minute lead through a well-struck Lois Openda penalty and doubled it a minute before the break when David Raum charged down the left and crossed for Yusuf Poulsen to tap in.
