BERLIN — Bayern Munich has slumped to its third consecutive defeat as Bochum held on to defeat the 11-time defending champion 3-2 in the Bundesliga. It left Thomas Tuchel's team eight points behind league leader Bayer Leverkusen with 12 rounds remaining and will increase doubts over the coach's future after a midweek loss to Lazio in the Champions League and last weekend's 3-0 defeat at Leverkusen. Remote-controlled model airplanes were flown onto the field during Eintracht Frankfurt's 3-3 draw with Freiburg as fans continued protests against an outside investor. Supporters throwing tennis balls later interrupted Bayern's match at Bochum over the German soccer league's same controversial plan to sell a stake in media rights income.
