Following Bochum's 3-2 victory over Bayern Munich, Manuel Neuer was speechless as they lost their third in a row. Leon Goretzka spoke about this "horror" film situation.

Bayern Munich lost 3-2 to VfL Bochum on Sunday in the Bundesliga in a shock defeat.

With this loss, the Bavarians were left eight points behind league leaders Bayer Leverkusen in the Bundesliga table.

In an interview with DAZN following the game, Leon Goretzka said: "It felt like a horror film that won't stop. Everything is working against us at the moment." 

Goretzka added: "At the end of the game, we tried everything we even managed to score to make it 3-2."

As well as this, Leon Goretzka said: "We had plenty of chances to turn the game around, but we didn't take them."

When asked by the interviewer about belief in winning the Meisterschale, Leon Goretzka said: "At the moment, it is hard to answer a question about us winning the Bundesliga with yes."
