Bayern Munich slipped up where few expected them to – and at a time when even fewer saw it coming! Schalke 04 had been utterly helpless against the record German champions in recent years, suffering 8-0, 6-0, 5-0 and 4-0 defeats. For seven and a half years, they had not even managed to score against Bayern.They still failed to find the net on Saturday, but this time Schalke finally managed something they had not done since February 2017: they held Bayern to a draw.##NAJAVA_MECA_9936793####EDITORS_CHOICE##In front of a packed stadium in Gelsenkirchen, the hosts produced an outstanding defensive performance to earn a 0-0 draw and leave Vincent Kompany with plenty to think about.The Bayern boss arguably gambled with his starting XI, leaving two of his biggest attacking weapons, Harry Kane and Michael Olise, on the bench. The newcomers failed to provide the same spark, while Ismael Saibari was deployed as a centre-forward, a role that never really suited him.Schalke deserve enormous credit for their discipline. They spent long spells defending with practically their entire team camped inside their own 30 metres, yet their concentration barely wavered. And when it did, Bayern were unable to punish them.Loris Karius also played his part, producing several important saves to keep the visitors at bay.Loris Karius parando Harry Kane e sendo fundamental no histórico 0 a 0 com o Bayern de Munique hoje.Ele está vivendo uma verdadeira história de redenção no Schalke 04. 🥹💙 pic.twitter.com/KaK1DQdk71— Bundesliga Insider (@BundesInsider) September 5, 2026 Bayern had just two serious chances in the first half, with Nathaniel Brown heavily involved in both. Kompany once again used the full-back in the No. 10 role, and Brown was one of the Bavarians' liveliest players before the break.First, he met a neatly laid-off ball from Aleksandar Pavlovic but saw his effort saved by Karius. Then Brown turned provider, brilliantly slipping a pass through to Luis Diaz, who failed to make the most of the opening and fired well wide.Despite that, Kompany substituted Brown at half-time and sent Kane into the game. When the picture barely changed after the restart, Olise followed before the hour mark.Bayern Munich vs Schalke has ended with 0–0 goal. Bayern Munich has more ball possession than them but couldn’t get a goal, 1 point for the both clubs pic.twitter.com/jM3eArqAM4— ALIh..🖤 (@OgiliA) September 5, 2026 Only then did Bayern begin to turn up the pressure.The ring around Karius' goal tightened, but clear-cut chances remained difficult to come by. Bayern repeatedly overplayed in the final third, taking one pass too many and allowing Schalke's compact defence to regroup.It was the first time in two and a half years that Bayern had failed to score in a Bundesliga match.BUNDESLIGA – MATCHDAY 2FridayStuttgart – Koln 4-1 (1-0)/El Khannous 39, Promel 60, Demirovic 75, Vagnoman 90 – Hendriks 81 og/SaturdayHoffenheim – Dortmund 2-3 (1-0)/Avdullahu 45, Lemperle 54 – Guirassy 61, Silva 66, Hajdari 86 og/Leverkusen – Union Berlin 4-0 (2-0)/Fernandez 1, Medina 28, Schick 48, Maza 66/M'gladbach – Elversberg 3-4 (2-1)/Bolin 11, 44, Scally 56 – Mokwa 29, Krattenmacher 66, 90+2, Keidel 80/Paderborn – Freiburg 0-1 (0-1)/Eggestein 26/Werder – RB Leipzig 3-1 (1-0)/Dikci 4, Fullkrug 68, Grull 80 – Baku 90+5/Schalke – Bayern Munich 0-0Sunday16.30: (2.90) Hamburger (3.45) Mainz (2.40) 18.30: (2.00) Eintr.Frankfurt (3.60) Augsburg (3.60) ***odds are subject to change***
