Hope for all Bayern hunters!

The record champions lost 2-1 in Mainz, losing a Bundesliga game for the first time under coach Vincent Kompany (38).

When temperatures are frosty (two degrees), the Bavarians are left cold. Also because a loan from Munich provided both goals!

41st minute: Kim and Olise cannot resolve Caci’s change of sides. The ball lands at Armindo Sieb (21), whom Bayern loaned to Mainz before the season. Olise deflects his cross straight to Jae-Sung Lee (32), who stays cool in front of Peretz. The 0:1!

60th minute: Sieb crosses flatly into the six-yard box to Lee. The South Korean turns and hits. The 0:2!

Both goals preparedBayern tore their own loan apart!

Two assists for a win for Mainz, which is fine. The hosts give the Kompany team a surprisingly high start, are toxic in the duels and take away the flow of the game from Munich.

Mainz, on the other hand, waits for moments of transition and has good chances. After 13 minutes, DFB striker Jonathan Burkardt (24) runs alone towards Bayern keeper Peretz, but is pushed back and only shoots wide.

Bitter: The Mainz clipper (ten goals in 13 games) then had to be replaced by Sieb with a thigh problem.

Bayern, on the other hand, had no solutions for large parts of the game. Sané scored shortly before the end to make it 1-2 (87th), but the equalizer was no longer there.

Symbolic of Bayern’s frustration: Superstar Jamal Musiala (21) shoots the ball across the field in frustration after the final whistle of the first half. So pursuers Leverkusen move up to four points…

Mainz sports director Niko Bungert (38) after the final whistle on “Sky”: “We have gained incredible self-confidence in the last few weeks and have developed a completely different level of sovereignty.” That was the icing on the cake today. The team is just stable right now.”

Bayern sports boss Max Eberl (51): “Mainz deserved this. They were more grippy, we were dissatisfied and rarely had control. In the end we couldn’t get it turned.”
