'We're angry' - Vincent Kompany criticises Bayern Munich stars after surprise collapse against Bochum and insists they should have won despite Joao Palhinha red card

Bundesliga

Augsburg

Bayern Munich

Bochum

VfB Stuttgart

<p>Bayern appeared to be cruising toward victory in the first half, with Raphael Guerriero scoring two goals in the opening half-hour. Serge Gnabry had an opportunity to extend their lead but missed a penalty, which <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/bayern-munich-shock-loss-bochum-joao-palhinha-red-card-thomas-muller-harry-kane/blt594313056e68e699" target="_blank">came back to haunt them later in the match. </a></p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>However, the tide turned in the 31st minute when Jakov Medic pulled one back for Bochum, and things began to unravel for Bayern. The situation worsened just before the break, as Palhinha received a red card three minutes before half-time for a rash challenge on Giorgos Masouras, which ultimately paved the way for Bochum's second-half comeback. Ibrahima Sissoko and Matu Bero got their names on the scoresheet in the second half, securing an unexpected victory for the 16th-placed side.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>After the match, a visibly frustrated Kompany lashed out at his players and insisted that there would be no excuses for the loss.</p><p>"Congratulations to VfL. It's very unpleasant for us," he told reporters. "We started well, but we must never get a red card. But even with 10 men we have to win this game or at least not lose. That didn't happen today. We are not looking for excuses or apologies, we lost.</p><p>"We will analyse it and must take responsibility for it. It is important that we concentrate on the reaction. Even with 10 men, we must have the ambition to win the game or at least not to lose. We did not manage that. Bochum deserves to feel that they have won, I know how much energy it takes to do that. For us, it is now about the next game.”</p>

WHAT KOMPANY SAID

<p>Kompany was unwavering in his assessment of the red card handed to Palhinha, saying that there was no reason to discuss the incident further.</p><p>"It was a red card. It's an unnecessary discussion," he said. "We got a red card, we lost. We don't need to talk so much. We lost and we have to react on the pitch now. Of course we're angry. The reaction to that is important now."</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Despite the shocking loss, Bayern remain in a commanding position at the top of the Bundesliga, holding an eight-point lead over Bayer Leverkusen, who also suffered a defeat to Werder Bremen on Saturday. Similarly, Borussia Dortmund saw a home defeat against Augsburg, with the latter securing a 1-0 win at Signal Iduna Park.</p><p>With the league title still well within their grasp, Bayern will now shift focus to their upcoming Champions League fixture. They will travel to Leverkusen for the second leg of their last-16 tie on Tuesday, with the Bavarians holding a commanding 3-0 lead from the first leg.</p>
