FC Bayern Munich suffered a devastating defeat at Eintracht Frankfurt. The record champions lost 1:5. Union Berlin, on the other hand, was able to win for the first time since the second matchday.
FC Bayern Munich has suffered a bitter setback in the Bundesliga title fight. The record champions lost 1:5 (1:3) at Eintracht Frankfurt on Saturday after a shockingly weak performance and missed out on a possible jump to first place in the table due to their first defeat of the season. Leaders Bayer Leverkusen can temporarily extend their lead to six points with a win on Sunday at third-placed VfB Stuttgart.
Debacle for FC Bayern: Eintracht Frankfurt wins 5-1 against the record champions
Union Berlin ended its series of 16 winless games in a row with a 3-1 (1-0) win against Borussia Mönchengladbach. It was also the first win under new coach Nenad Bjelica at his home premiere. Werder Bremen also celebrated 98 important victories in the relegation battle with a 2-0 (1-0) against FC Augsburg and 1. FC Heidenheim with a 3:2 (1-0) in the promoted duel against SV Darmstadt. SC Freiburg also won 1-0 (0-0) at VfL Wolfsburg.
The Frankfurt team, who had failed miserably in the cup three days earlier against third division team 1. FC Saarbrücken, showed a splendid first half and were ahead thanks to goals from Omar Marmoush (12th minute), Eric Junior Dina Ebimbe (31st) and Hugo Larsson ( 36.) already 3-0 in the lead. Joshua Kimmich’s goal (44th) gave Munich some hope before the break, but shortly after the restart Dina Ebimbe (50th) scored for the second time. Ansgar Knauff (60th) made the debacle perfect for Bayern.
Union is turning the corner, Wolfsburg is sliding deeper into the crisis
In Berlin, Kevin Volland gave the Union team the lead with a converted hand penalty (24th). In the second half, Benedict Hollerbach (50th) and Mikkel Kaufmann (75th) followed up. Gladbach was only able to shorten the score through Alassane Pléa (75′).
Thanks to goals from Niklas Stark (39th) and Marvin Ducksch (65th), Bremen were able to celebrate their fourth win of the season.
