VfB Stuttgart won the top match against Bayern Munich on Saturday afternoon. The number three of the Bundesliga were too strong at home with 3-1 der Rekordmeister. With two matches to go, the gap in the Bundesliga rankings between number two Bayern and number three Stuttgart is now two points.

Bayern still had to make do without the injured Matthijs de Ligt, who hopes to be available for the return against Real Madrid in the semi-finals of the Champions League next week. The heart of the defense against Stuttgart once again consisted of Eric Dier and Kim Min-jae. Noussair Mazraoui started on the bench, but came on after more than an hour of play.

In the opening phase, Stuttgart was the better side, and the home team also had chances to score the opening goal. For example, a shot from Chris Führich was saved by Manuel Neuer and Dier managed to head away a volley from Serhou Guirassy just before the line.

Shortly after that chance for Guirassy, ​​Stuttgart still took the lead. With a nice arc, Deniz Undav put his teammate Leonidas Stergiou face to face with Neuer, and the right back rounded it off: 1-0.

Could be for a very long time those Swabia however, do not enjoy that advantage. Bayern were awarded a penalty a few minutes later, after Serge Gnabry was lightly hit in the face by Waldemar Anton. Harry Kane took advantage of the opportunity from eleven meters: 1-1.

Shortly after halftime, both teams had a good chance to take the lead, but Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting (just wide) and Führich (neuer's save) were unable to score. Both teams were also dangerous a few times later in the second half, including through Undav and Kane.

For a long time it seemed like a draw would be the final score, but just before the end it was substitute Jeong Woo-yeong who put Stuttgart at 2-1: he headed in a cross from Silas. The latter finally decided the game in injury time with a slider from the edge of the penalty area: 3-1.
