Holders Bayern Munich narrowly progressed to the round of 16 of the German Cup, scoring two late goals on Tuesday to defeat second-tier Bochum 2-1.
Bochum are floundering near the bottom of the second division but led Bayern 1-0 with less than 10 minutes to go, as the visitors struggled to break down a determined defence.
Winger Serge Gnabry hauled Bayern level in the 83rd minute, while Thomas Mueller put his recent form worries to bed to score the winner in the 89th minute.
Earlier on Tuesday, Bundesliga newcomers Union Berlin also progressed after two late goals saw them secure a 3-1 win at Freiburg.
Robin Koch, who made his Germany debut this month, scored just before halftime for Freiburg to cancel out Joshua Mees’ opener for Berlin in the 36th minute.
Robert Andrich struck three minutes from time to put Union back in front, benefiting from some excellent passing interplay to find himself unmarked in front of goal.
Freiburg lost possession while pushing for an equaliser, with Christian Gentner scoring on the counter to wrap up victory for Berlin, who lost the 2001 final to Schalke. (SuperSport)
