Saarbrücken close to relegation to fourth division, knocking out Bayern Munich in DFB-Pokal

With Manuel Neuer, de Ligt, Kimmich, Muller and Sane in the starting line-up, Thomas Tuchel’s side made fun of Saarbrucken, who are 15th in Germany’s third division.

Thomas Müller opened the scoring after just 16 minutes, but Saarbrücken equalized in first-half stoppage time thanks to Sontheimer.

Despite Musiala, Gnabry and Coman coming on in the second half, Bayern were unable to score and the game appeared to be headed for extra time.

But in the sixth minute of stoppage time, Haus scored to make it 2-1 and Saarbrucken pulled off the surprise of the German Cup round.

The Bavarians have 20 German Cup trophies, the last one won in the 2019-2020 season.
