Bayern Munich suffered a painful 3-1 defeat against VfB Stuttgart on Saturday, causing the team to fear for second place in the Bundesliga. Borussia Dortmund did better with a 5-1 win over FC Augsburg.

Due to the defeat in Stuttgart, which is third, the battle for second place is completely open again. The gap between the two teams is only two points with two matches to go.

Leonidas Stergiou opened the score for the home team in Stuttgart. He sent the ball over goalkeeper Manuel Neuer with a nice lob. Moments later, Harry Kane scored the equalizer. The English top striker converted a penalty to score his 36th goal of the season. Kane is getting closer to Robert Lewandowski’s Bundesliga record of 41 goals in a single season.

Stuttgart increased the pressure after the break and took the lead again through a striking header from Jeong Woo-yeong. Deep into injury time, Silas Katompa Mvumpa delivered an extra blow to Bayern with a low shot: 3-1.

This means that Bayern has had a bad general in the run-up to the return in the semi-finals of the Champions League. Bayern will visit Real Madrid on Wednesday at 9 p.m.

Harry Kane maakte in Stuttgart zijn 36e treffer van het seizoen.

Malen scores for Dortmund

In Dortmund, Donyell Malen was one of the goalscorers. The Dutch international scored the second goal of the afternoon with a tap-in. Dortmund already led 4-1 against FC Augsburg after 34 minutes.

In addition to Malen, Youssoufa Moukoko (twice), Marco Reus and Felix Nmecha were also accurate. Dortmund already led 4-1 after 34 minutes. The last goal was scored by Reus, who announced his departure earlier this week.

For Borussia Dortmund, the emphasis at the end of this season is on the Champions League. Due to the generous lead against Augsburg, trainer Edin Terzic was able to spare basic customers Emre Can and Jadon Sancho. The return against PSG is scheduled for Tuesday at 9 p.m.
