Bayern Munich failed to secure their 34th Bundesliga title after a draw against RB Leipzig on May 3, 2025. A late goal denied Bayern the victory, postponing the championship decision.
Bayern Munich's pursuit of their 34th championship faced a setback in a thrilling match against RB Leipzig. The game saw Bayern recover from a 0-2 deficit to lead until the final moments, ultimately ending in a 3-3 draw.
"We are practically champions!" exclaimed FC Bayern sporting director Christoph Freund, despite the delayed title confirmation.
The draw means Bayern's title celebrations are on hold until at least Sunday. If Bayer Leverkusen fails to win their match, Bayern will secure the championship. The game also highlighted individual errors, particularly from Bayern's goalkeeper Jonas Urbig, who misjudged a play leading to an early goal for Leipzig. Dietmar Hamann commented on Urbig's mistake, stating, "He shouldn't have come out. He's far forward, but he's never going to get there. And slip or not – I don't think he would have gotten back anyway. He misjudged and poorly evaluated the situation."
Looking ahead, Bayern's chances of winning the title still appear favorable, contingent on Bayer Leverkusen's performance. Victory for Bayern hinges on Leverkusen faltering in their upcoming game.
