They had taken the lead in the 43rd minute against the flow of play when Christoph Kramer hit a speculative long ball into Bayern Munich’s half.

Defender Dayot Upamecano made a mess out of a clearance which allowed Marcus Thuram to run at Manuel Neuer and beat the Bayern Munich captain with a low shot.

Bayern Munich dropped their first points of the season ahead of their trip next Saturday to Union Berlin.

They had celebrated their biggest Bundesliga victory 6-1 at Schalke 04 earlier on Saturday and are level on 10 points with them.
