FC Bayern must be beaten by VfL Bochum at the end. The Munich people disappoint almost across the board. The individual criticism.
Julian Buhl reports from Munich
FC Bayern came out of the victory rhythm after a ten-man rotation between the big Champions League duels with Bayer Leverkusen. In the surprising 2: 3 (2: 1) against VfL Bochum, a red card for midfielder João Palhinha after a rough step on the shin of VfL professional Georgios Masouras in the 43rd minute to the key scene and the turning point became a coarse.
Despite the defeat, the German record champion maintained his lead from eight points to pursuers Leverkusen, who also lost 0: 2 against Werder Bremen at the same time. Already on Tuesday (from 9 p.m. in the live ticker at T-Online) there will be a round of 16 second leg in the “premier class” in Leverkusen, in which Bayern go as a clear favorite after the 3-0 in Munich-despite the flop against Bochum.
The Munich B line-up around captain Thomas Müller clearly shone on the winning road after two goals of the disguised striker Raphaël Guerreiro (14th and 28th minute) when there was a blatant break. After the goal of defender Javko Medić (31st), Palhinha flew off the square. In the majority, Bochum made the sensation: Ibrahima Sissoko headed the 2: 2 (51st), Matu Bero then became the left -hand shot to the Bochum match winner (71.).
Young star Jonas Urbig, who initially represents the injured captain Manuel Neuer in the Munich goal, was only partially fault for the first home defeat of FC Bayern since the 0: 2 against Borussia Dortmund almost a year ago. The 21-year-old held properly and even prevented the 2: 4 against Bero.
After the game, coach Vincent Kompany found clear words: “There are no excuses, we have lost,” he said at the press conference. In view of his great rotation, he must now “accept that criticism comes”.
