Bochum 3-2 Bayern München: Meister erleidet zweite aufeinanderfolgende Bundesliga-Niederlage inmitten von Protesten, Dayot Upamecano vom Platz gestellt – Eurosport

Bayern Munich is now eight points behind Bundesliga leaders Bayer Leverkusen after losing three matches in a row for the first time in nine years. In a game against Bochum, two long delays were caused by fan protests, with the first interruption occurring midway through the first half after Jamal Musiala’s early goal. Bochum came back strong after the interruptions, with goals from Takuma Asano and Keven Schlotterbeck. Despite a late goal from Harry Kane, Bochum held on for a 3-2 victory.

The protests during the game may have an impact on Bayern Munich manager Thomas Tuchel’s job prospects, as the team’s recent poor form has put his position in jeopardy. The timing of the protest disrupted what looked like a positive result for Bayern, with notable performances from Musiala and Kane in the match. Bochum’s goalkeeper Manuel Riemann played a key role in securing the victory, making important saves throughout the game.

Kevin Stoger was named Player of the Match for his standout performance in controlling proceedings for Bochum. The team’s strong defensive display, with notable contributions from players like Anthony Losilla, Keven Schlotterbeck, and Christopher Antwi-Adjei, proved effective against Bayern’s attack. The match was filled with key moments, including goals, a sending off for Upamecano, and a late save from Riemann to deny Sane.

Overall, the game highlighted the impact of fan protests on the match and potentially on Tuchel’s future at Bayern Munich. Bochum’s resilient performance and defensive solidity earned them a crucial victory, while Bayern’s struggles continue as they fall further behind in the Bundesliga title race.
