Bayern Munich slumped to a 3-1 loss at Mainz, conceding all three goals in a span of 14 minutes, to drop to second place in the Bundesliga, behind Borussia Dortmund, with five games left in the season.

The Bavarian side, who kicked off two points clear of Borussia Dortmund, could not have imagined their fate after going 1-0 up courtesy of Sadio Mané’s 29th-minute header. Bayern, chasing an 11th straight league crown, are on 59 points, one behind Dortmund, who crushed Eintracht Frankfurt 4-0 to take control of the title race.
