Report: Bayern Munich 1-1 Hoffenheim
Date: 05 November 2016
Venue: Allianz Arena
Bayern Munich were left frustrated after dropping points at home, as they were held to a 1-1 draw by Hoffenheim on Saturday evening.
Hoffenheim broke the deadlock in the 16th minute, as Kerem Demirbay placed the ball into the top corner from the edge of the area.
Bayern level matters after 34 minutes when Steven Zuber headed Douglas Costa's cross into the back of his own net, 1-1.
The Bavarians pushed for another goals as the opening half went on, but the score remained 1-1 as the sides entered the break.
The hosts nearly took the lead after the hour-mark, but Zuber popped up with a superb block to deny Thiago Alcantara a certain goal.
Carlo Ancelotti opted for a change in the 68th minute, as Thomas Muller replaced Arturo Vidal as Bayern searched for a winner.
Muller nearly made the perfect impact, but he could only direct his close range header straight at the goalkeeper after 83 minutes.
The woodwork ensured both sides earned a share of the spoils, as Muller teed up Mats Hummels, who rattled the post from close range.
