Chasers rejoice
German Conference with Bayern and Leverkusen LIVE
Surprise in the German Bundesliga: FC Bayern Munich conceded their first league defeat on matchday 14! The league leaders were beaten 2:1 in Mainz on Saturday. As a result, the lead over the chasing pack is shrinking.
Kronen Zeitung als bevorzugte Google-Quelle hinzufügen Lee Jae-sung (41st, 60th) scored a brace to make Mainz the match winners. Champions and runners-up Bayer Leverkusen reduced the gap to Munich to four points after the 14th round with a 2-0 win in Augsburg.
Laimer in the starting eleven
ÖFB international Konrad Laimer was once again in the starting eleven at right-back for coach Vincent Kompany's Bayern, who were somewhat fortunate to equalize through Leroy Sané (87') in the closing stages. The 27-year-old from Salzburg switched to the left flank in the second half and was unlucky to concede the second goal when he was unable to prevent a cross to Lee. Phillipp Mwene played through for Mainz, with Karim Onisiwo coming on in the 77th minute.
Leverkusen took a comfortable lead in Augsburg through Martin Terrier (14th) and Florian Wirtz (40th). The fourth win in a row was never in danger for coach Xabi Alonso's "Werkself". In the final round before the Christmas break, Bayern will host RB Leipzig on Friday, while Leverkusen will face Freiburg a day later.
Kleindienst scores after 36 seconds
Borussia Mönchengladbach beat Holstein Kiel 4:1. The preliminary decision was made after just 36 seconds when Gladbach goalscorer Tim Kleindienst headed home the winner.
Meanwhile, the clash between Union Berlin and bottom-of-the-table VfL Bochum was interrupted in stoppage time of the second half at 1-1 after Bochum goalkeeper Patrick Drewes was hit on the head by a lighter thrown from the Union fan sector.
Bremen celebrate victory in Hamburg
In the evening match of the day, SV Werder Bremen won 2:0 (1:0) at FC St. Pauli with the ÖFB trio Marco Friedl, Romano Schmid and Marco Grüll in the starting eleven. Derrick Köhn (24) and Marvin Ducksch (56) made the most of two of Werder's few chances as they moved up to seventh place and are now the second-best away team.
