The German champions, facing their first three-game losing streak in nine years, had control before the first interruption, thanks to Musiala&#8217;s early goal.<\/p>\n<p>During the 14-minute pause, marked by tennis ball throwing on the pitch, Bochum responded strongly with Asano&#8217;s excellent strike and Schlotterbeck&#8217;s powerful header. The second half witnessed another player exit due to fan protests against the German league authority (DFL), and once again, Bochum capitalized, with Kevin Stoger converting a penalty after Dayot Upamecano received a second yellow card.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Bayern have lost back-to-back Bundesliga games for the first time since December 2019:<\/p>\n<p>\u25c9 Bayer Leverkusen 3-0 Bayern<br \/>\n\u25c9 Bochum 3-2 Bayern<\/p>\n<p>If Leverkusen win on Friday, not only will they take Bayern&#8217;s unbeaten record, they will move 11 points clear of them in the table. \ud83d\ude2e <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/kn07cEnTXE\" target=\"_blank\">pic.twitter.com\/kn07cEnTXE<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Squawka (@Squawka) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Squawka\/status\/1759288956229652912?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">February 18, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Despite Harry Kane&#8217;s late goal, Bochum secured a memorable victory, with goalkeeper Manuel Riemann making crucial saves.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bayern Munich suffered their third consecutive defeat, failing to gain ground in the Bundesliga title race after a 3-2 loss to Bochum.
