Bayern Munich 1-2 Augsburg

In a stunning Bavarian derby upset, Augsburg ended Bayern's unbeaten season. Despite Hiroki Ito's early lead, late goals from Arthur Chaves and Han-Noah Massengo turned the game on its head.

Vincent Kompany's side lacked their usual fluidity, and the shock defeat snapped a remarkable 27-match unbeaten run in the Bundesliga.

"We've had many, many wins here and often had reason to celebrate, but now we've lost, and we need to accept that," said Kompany.

"The hunger is always there; that's not the problem. Sometimes the performance on the day just isn't there.

"People often say that the Bundesliga is easy, but we know from our own experience that it isn't. We shouldn't question everything now - we just need to accept that today wasn't our day.

"However, what we say here isn't decisive; what matters is our reaction on the pitch. That's no guarantee, but we know what we have to do."
