Bayern Munich's 2-0 loss in Der Klassiker has left them 13 points behind league leaders Bayer Leverkusen, and Thomas Tuchel has stated that the team is out of the running for the Bundesliga championship. Bayern's hopes of winning a 12th league championship in a row were hanging by the thinnest of threads as Borussia Dortmund secured their first victory at the Allianz Arena since 2014 with a 2-0 score thanks to goals from Karim Adeyemi and Julian Ryerson. Fate is already settled for Tuchel, he will go from the Bavarian giants at the end of the current campaign.

Conversely, Bayer Leverkusen appeared destined for their first loss in 39 games in all competitions as they trailed Hoffenheim at home. Maximilian Beier had handed the visitors an early lead in the 33rd but Leverkusen won 2-1 in extra time when Patrik Schick reacted fastest to volley home Nathan Tella's cross and Robert Andrich equalized with two minutes remaining, slamming home a bobbling attempt.
