Summary of Bochum's 2:3 victory over Bayern Munich/Sport1
The 22nd round in the Bundesliga came to an end this evening (Sunday) with two games, one of which provided a surprise that may change fates in the fight for the title.
The champion of the last ten years Bayern Munich lost 3:2 at Bochum, and the leading Berkusen who won yesterday is already eight points away from them.
Even earlier, Freiburg and Eintracht Frankfurt had a great 3:3 draw.
Bochum - Bayern Munich 2:3
The pressure that was on Thomas Tuchel and on the heads of Bayern Munich to fire him will only increase following the embarrassing and third loss in a row in all formats - after the 3:0 to Leverkusen in this season's game and the 1:0 to Lazio in the round of 16 of the Champions League.
Jamal Musiala gave the champions a lead in the 14th minute and the Bavarians already thought they were on the right track, but from there everything fell apart.
Nosier Mazarawi was injured and was replaced in the 32nd minute by Dayo Opamakanu, and even before the break, the hosts got a turnaround with goals from Takuma Asano (38) and Kwon Schlotterback (44).
Against Lazio in the middle of the week Opamakanu was sent off with a straight red which led to a penalty that decided the match.
Even today he caused a penalty and this time he was sent off after a second yellow, Kevin Stöger took advantage of this to determine 1:3 from the penalty spot in the 78th minute.
Manuel Reimann produced a superb save from Leroy Sane's kick in the 86th minute, Harry Kane pounced a minute later but Bochum held on to open a nine-point gap at the Test leaders.
Bayern did win 0:7 in three of the last six meetings between the teams, but two of those games ended in a sensational victory for Bochum.

Freiburg - Eintracht Frankfurt 3:3
A great match in Freiburg, at the end of which the host prevents her opponent from getting a little closer to the fight for the place in the Champions League.
The Egyptian Omar Marmosh scored Eintracht's first in the 27th minute, and three minutes later the Japanese Ritsu Doan equalized the score.
Ansger Knauf entered in the 11th minute in place of the injured Saša Klajdžić, and in the 35th minute he benefited from Marmosh's assist to make it 1:2.
The last word in the first half belonged to Vincenzo Griffo, who with an accurate penalty five minutes into the added time brought the teams to the break in a tie.
In the 72nd minute, Frankfurt regained the lead in the third, when Marmush and Knauf were again responsible.
The Egyptian had an excellent game with a goal and two assists, the early substitute Knauf finished with a brace.
However, the performance of the two was not enough to return home with a victory, as Michael Gregorich equalized again for the host in the 89th minute and rescued her first point after three consecutive losses.
Freiburg did not give up.
