Bayern Munich star Joshua Kimmich has slammed his teammates after failing 13 points behind league leader Bayer Leverkusen on Saturday.

The Bavarians' disappointing Bundesliga campaign continued after losing 2-0 to Borussia Dortmund in Der Klassiker.

The defeat has left Bayern 13 points behind Leverkusen who snatched a late win against Hoffenheim.

Kimmich did not hold back after the game and says the players should question themselves.

"I wonder how we could perform like that in a game like this," Kimmich told Sky Sports.

"It's completely inexplicable to me, it's completely incomprehensible. In the second half you had the feeling that nothing was at stake. It was like a friendly.

"We players should go home and question ourselves. It doesn't matter who is in the team. It will be difficult next week against Heidenheim and of course in the Champions League."

Meanwhile, Bayern manager Thomas Tuchel has congratulated Leverkusen after giving on the title race.

“Obviously, yes. After today’s game there is no more need to count points," Tuchel said, as per the Guardian.

"How many is it now? Congratulations to Leverkusen.

“We are very disappointed because we felt we did not bring the necessary passion to win the game.

"It was too little from us when it came to the basics.”
