The 3-2 defeat at lowly Bochum was Bayern’s third reverse in a row, after a 3-0 thumping by Alonso’s league leaders last weekend and a 1-0 midweek loss at Lazio in the Champions League.

Bayern Munich coach Thomas Tuchel said winning this season’s Bundesliga title was “not so realistic right now” after a loss on Sunday which left Xabi Alonso’s Bayer Leverkusen eight points clear at the top. The 3-2 defeat at lowly Bochum was Bayern’s third reverse in a row, after a 3-0 thumping by Alonso’s league leaders last weekend and a 1-0 midweek loss at Lazio in the Champions League.
The German champions have not lost three matches in a row since 2015, a run which included semi-final defeats to Barcelona in the Champions League and Borussia Dortmund in the German Cup. Asked if his job was in danger, Tuchel said “there is no point worrying about it”. Bayern CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen told reporters Tuchel would “of course” be in the dugout against Leipzig on Saturday.
