Bayern Munich suffered their third defeat in nine days as they were beaten 3-2 by Bochum. Jamal Musiala gave Bayern the lead but goals from Takuma Asano and Keven Schlotterbeck put Bochum ahead. A stoppage due to fans’ protests saw Kevin Stoger score a penalty, making it 3-1 after Dayot Upamecano’s red card.

Harry Kane scored his 25th league goal of the season but it wasn’t enough. Bayern Munich now eight points behind Bundesliga leaders Bayer Leverkusen face challenges in defending their title and securing a trophy this season. Protests disrupted the match twice, and the defeat marked Bayern’s first three games losing streak since May 2015.

Kane set a record as the fastest to reach 25 Bundesliga goals in a season. Protest incidents have become common at Bundesliga games reflecting fan dissatisfaction with an investment proposal by the German Football Association.
