Bayern opened the scoring early through veteran Thomas Mueller, but the home side equalised in first-half injury time through Patrick Sontheimer.

With scores locked at 1-1 and the match seemingly destined for extra time, defender Gaus scored in the sixth minute of injury time to earn his side a famous victory.

"When a first-division team like Bayern comes to Saarbruecken and loses, then we did something wrong," veteran Mueller told ARD after the match.
