Bayern Munich knocked out of German cup by third tier side

Harry Kane's wait for a trophy continues

Saarbrucken defeated the Bundesliga champions on one of the most memorable nights in the club's history thanks to Marcel Gaus' stoppage time winner.

Bayern fielded an incredibly strong side that contained the likes of Manuel Neuer, Leroy Sane and Thomas Muller with Harry Kane the only usual change and was an unused substitute.

Muller put the away side in front after 11 minutes but Patrick Sontheimer equalised in first half stoppage time before Gaus' late winner to shock the world of football.

It's the third time in four seasons that Bayern have exited the Pokal in the second round.

To make matters worse one of Thomas Tuchel's key players looks set for a lengthy spell on the sidelines as Matthijs de Ligt appeared to pick up a serious looking injury just days before their crunch match against Borussia Dortmund.

"It feels strange. Everyone who says we have to win here is right," Tuchel said when assessing the embarrassing defeat.

"There's no clever explanation, we are extremely disappointed. We really wanted to reach [the final in] Berlin. It is what it is, we have to congratulate our opponent."
