Bayern Munich crashed to a 2-1 defeat at Eintracht Frankfurt on Saturday in the Bundesliga as the world champions again showed chinks in their armour before they return to Champions League action next week.
Robert Lewandowski netted his 26th league goal of the season for Bayern, but Frankfurt deserved the win thanks to first-half goals by Japan midfielder Daichi Kamada and Amin Younes.
After their 3-3 league draw at home to strugglers Arminia Bielefeld last Monday, Bayern again laboured ahead of Tuesday’s Champions League last 16, first leg tie at Lazio.
“We haven’t learned from the Bielefeld game,” Bayern captain Manuel Neuer told Sky.
“We have to be aggressive from the very beginning, we have to be wide awake. We only got going in the second half.”
Frankfurt’s win gives hope to Bayern’s league rivals as second-placed RB Leipzig can cut their lead to two points if they win at Hertha Berlin on Sunday.
It was Bayern’s third league defeat. Their last, a 3-2 reverse at Borussia Moenchengladbach in January, was followed by a shock German Cup defeat at second-tier Holstein Kiel. (Reuters)
