Bayern Munich drop points once again as Stuttgart snatch late draw
Serhou Guirassy had the final say following a VAR review
Bayern Munich dropped points for the third successive Bundesliga game as Stuttgart scored a stoppage-time penalty to draw 2-2 at the Allianz Arena.
The hosts had taken the lead in the 36th minute through 17-year-old Mathys Tel, who became Bayern’s youngest scorer in the Bundesliga.
Stuttgart striker Serhou Guirassy then saw a goal ruled out for a foul in the build-up.
The visitors, though, did equalise on the hour through substitute Chris Fuhrich – only for Bayern to swiftly regain the lead when Jamal Musiala slotted into the far corner.
Guirassy struck the crossbar and had another goal ruled out by VAR, but had the final say in stoppage time.
Referee Christian Dingert checked the pitchside monitor for a late challenge by Matthijs De Ligt on the Guinea striker and pointed to the penalty spot, with Guirassy making no mistake to earn Stuttgart a point.
