Bayern Munich Held to 1-1 Draw by Defiant Union Berlin

Union Berlin's disciplined defense and a late equalizer thwart Bayern's efforts to extend their Bundesliga lead.

Bayern Munich dominated possession but struggled to break through Union Berlin's compact defensive setup, managing only a single goal through Leroy Sané in the 75th minute.
Union Berlin equalized in the 83rd minute after a mistake by Bayern goalkeeper Jonas Urbig, who mishandled a cross that Benedict Hollerbach converted.
This result comes after Bayern's unexpected home loss to Bochum last weekend, marking a challenging stretch in their Bundesliga campaign despite recent Champions League success.
Union Berlin's point is a boost in their fight against relegation, following last week's win over Frankfurt, though their lead over the relegation zone could narrow depending on Bochum's upcoming match.
Bayern's lead at the top of the Bundesliga remains comfortable, but Bayer Leverkusen has the opportunity to close the gap to six points with a win against Stuttgart on Sunday.
