Football: Holders Bayern knocked out of German Cup by second tier Kiel

KIEL, Germany: Holders Bayern Munich twice gave up a one-goal lead before crashing out of the German Cup 6-5 on penalties to second tier Holstein Kiel on Wednesday following a 2-2 draw after extra time in the second-round match.

"We lost to the underdogs Kiel and they did everything they could," Mueller said."We had chances in the first half. But we made mistakes and Kiel punished us. The champions' defence has been leaking throughout the season with their most goals conceded after 15 games in the league since 1981, and Kiel struck on the break in the 37th minute when Bartels beat defender Niklas Suele in a sprint to score.Despite making five changes to the team that squandered a two-goal lead to lose 3-2 at Borussia Moenchengladbach in the Bundesliga on Saturday, coach Hansi Flick's Bayern continued to be vulnerable at the back.

Bayern, who won five titles in 2020 including the Champions League, hit the woodwork through Jamal Musiala before the hosts struck with Hauke Wahl's last-gasp header to send the game into extra time.
