RB Leipzig bagged a last-gasp equaliser in the fifth minute of added time to stop Bayern Munich from wrapping up their 34th Bundesliga title, holding them to a thrilling 3-3 draw at the Red Bull Arena - and keeping Harry Kane waiting for his first-ever trophy.
Yussuf Poulsen found the net right at the death, leaving Bayern stuck on 76 points – nine clear of Bayer Leverkusen, who play away at Freiburg on Sunday. With two games left, Bayern can still clinch the title if Leverkusen drop points.
The hosts opened the scoring in the 11th minute when Benjamin Sesko finished off a lightning counter from a Xavi Simons pass, curling a lovely shot past keeper Jonas Urbig.
Things went from bad to worse for Vincent Kompany's side just before half-time when Lukas Klostermann shrugged off his marker to nod in a David Raum free kick and make it 2-0.
But Bayern came out flying after the break. Eric Dier got on the end of Michael Olise’s corner to head one in at the near post, and a minute later Olise smashed in the equaliser.
Leroy Sane looked to have won it with a goal seven minutes from the end - but Poulsen had other ideas, nicking a late leveller to ruin the celebrations.
