The stake was huge, for Bayern not to end the season without a trophy, and for Leipzig to qualify for the Champions League... Epilogue, unbelievable! The ten-time consecutive champion of Germany was humiliated at the Allianz Arena by Leipzig's fantastic performance in the second half - 1:3.
And the home team led, with a goal by Serž Gnabrij in 25th minute, the Bavarians seemed headed for another routine win. Thomas Tuchel's team was not worried by several good attacks by the guests after the conceded goal, Jan Zomer was confident in those situations.
And the continuation belonged to the guests, they took over the middle and tried, but they lacked composure and a "final" pass. It also happened in the 65th minute, but the ball happily bounced to Leimer who did not hesitate - he nailed the ball under the crossbar with 13 meters.
Bayern's offensive was expected, but it was the visitors who gained wings with a goal. There were chances in front of Zomer's goal, Nkunku didn't even hit a zicer, but Benjamin Pavar took care of the reversal. He brought down Nkunku, who took responsibility and scored from the penalty spot in 76rd minute.
The same picture was seen after the reversal, the guests were more specific, faster, more dynamic and Mazraui made a new penalty by playing with his hand, which Dominik Soboslai used to confirm the victory in the 86th minute.
It was Pavar who missed a shot in the 90th, or rather, he shot straight at the goalkeeper from 10 meters, so Leipzig won the Allianz Arena for the first time, and a trip to the Champions League.
Bayern can only hope that their neighbors from Augsburg will help them and stop Borussia Dortmund tomorrow.
