Three Straight Losses for Bundesliga Champions

Bochum's Triumph Over Bayern

However, Bochum regained the advantage before halftime with a goal from Philipp Förster. In the second half, Bayern pressed for an equalizer but could only manage a consolation goal from Serge Gnabry. Bochum sealed the victory with a late strike from Simon Zoller.
Bayern's Defensive Woes
Bayern Munich's defeat highlighted their defensive deficiencies, which have been a concern throughout the season. Bochum's quick and direct attacks exposed the German champions' vulnerabilities, leading to three goals in the first 45 minutes.
Daggers in Julian Nagelsmann's Heart
This loss puts immense pressure on Bayern Munich manager Julian Nagelsmann. After winning the Bundesliga and the Champions League last season, the club's recent form has been disappointing. Nagelsmann will need to find a way to turn things around quickly or risk losing the support of the club and the fans.
