US EditionSurprising Augsburg hands Bayern Munich first defeat in the Bundesliga
- On Jan. 24, 2026, FC Augsburg stunned host Bayern Munich 2-1 in Munich, handing Bayern its first Bundesliga defeat of the season.
- After securing European progress midweek, Bayern started strong with Hiroki Ito’s 23rd-minute header from a Michael Olise corner, while Augsburg faced relegation pressure three points from the relegation zone.
- Arthur Chaves levelled the score in the 75th with a header that Bayern goalkeeper Jonas Urbig failed to reach, and Han-Noah Massengo scored the winner six minutes later from a Dimitrios Giannoulis cross.
- The result alters immediate title-race and scheduling pressures as Borussia Dortmund, on 39, can narrow the gap later Saturday while Bayern must regroup for Wednesday’s trip to PSV Eindhoven.
- It marks a rare blank in Bayern’s recent league form since March 8 last year, ending their run of points and with Michael Olise credited with 14 assists this season.
