Ten-man Bayern shocked at home by Bochum

Bundesliga leaders Bayern Munich wasted a two-goal lead in front of a home crowd to slump to a 3-2 loss to visitors VfL Bochum in the Bundesliga on Saturday in a disastrous dress rehearsal ahead of next week's Champions League return leg against Bayer Leverkusen.

Τhe Bavarians, who beat Leverkusen 3-0 in the first leg of their Round of 16 on Wednesday, looked to be cruising to a comfortable win after Raphael Guerreiro struck twice in 14 minutes to put them 2-0 up by the 28th minute.

Bochum, however, cut the deficit three minutes later, with Jakov Medic drilling in.

Things got worse for Bayern when João Palhinha was sent off with a red card two minutes before the break after a rough tackle and Bochum made the extra man count when Ibrahima Sissoko headed in a 51st-minute equaliser.

The visitors completed their stunning comeback in the 71st when Matus Bero slipped into the box and beat Bayern keeper Jonas Urbig.

Bayern are in top spot on 61 points and remain eight points clear of second-placed Bayer Leverkusen, who lost 2-0 to Werder Bremen.
