Bayern Munich did not return as they wanted from the Club World Cup. After the draw against Bielefeld, the Bavarians lost today (Saturday) 2: 1 to Eintracht Frankfurt, the hottest team in the Bundesliga. If Leipzig beat Hertha Berlin on Sunday, the gap at the top will shrink to just 2 points. Do not eulogize the German league. Later, Borussia Dortmund defeated Schalke 0: 4 in the derby.
Frankfurt – Bayern Munich 1: 2
Just before the match against Lazio in the last eight of the Champions League, the European champion suffered a blow at Komersbank. It may not be the resounding and humiliating 5: 0 it grabbed last year, but the ability should definitely worry the Enzy Flick. In the first half, only one team was on the field, and that was Eddie Hooter’s team.
Already after 12 minutes a great move by Philip Kostic on the left wing ended a wide ball and the Japanese Daichi Kamada continued the ball into the net of Manuel Neuer. 0: 1 to Frankfurt. In the 31st minute, Kamada found Amin Yunes in the box. The talented extremist, passed from left to right and kicked a ball that flew to Neuer’s connections. Huge goal and 0: 2 to the hot Frankfurt. With a little more precision, the host could also have scored the third until the break.
Eight minutes after the start of the second half, the champion woke up. Leroy Sana made a spectacular personal move on the right wing, throwing a number of players and passing a ball wide. Robert Lewandowski was there to roll his 26th league goal this season up close. Despite Bayern’s control of the field, they failed to score more than one goal and suffered a third consecutive loss. Frankfurt records a fifth consecutive victory and returns to third place, all without Andre Silva the king of its gates.
Schalke – Borussia Dortmund 4: 0
Jason Sancho started the celebration when he scored in the 42nd minute and a little over a month before the age of 21, became the youngest player to reach 35 Bundesliga goals. But an Englishman was not content with that, and in the 45th minute he cooked for Arling Holland, who continued his great week with a spectacular half-digit. Marco Royce, in his 300th league appearance, cooked up the 0F3 for Rafael Greiro in the 60th minute, and the Netherlands closed out an interest when he completed a double (79), which left Schalke deep in last place.

Mönchengladbach – Mainz 2: 1
Just before the meeting with Manchester City in the Champions League, Marco Rosa’s team was disappointed. Krim Univiv took control of a long ball in the 10th minute and kicked his left foot to the crossbar and into the net to give the bottom team the lead. The excellent Lars Stindel equalized (26) with a flat kick to the far corner, but 4 minutes before the end Kevin Stogger took advantage of a mistake in the foals’ defense and fired the ball into the net. Gladbach is 9 points behind the leading fourth place at the end of the season for the champions. Mainz just a point from the tests.
