Bundesliga leaders Bayern Munich are now winless in their last three games after being held to a 2-2 draw at ten-man Eintracht Frankfurt on Saturday in the German league.

After last month's 1-0 Champions League defeat at Atletico Madrid and their 1-1 league draw with Cologne before the international break, this was neither the performance nor the result coach Carlo Ancelotti wanted.

Despite the draw, Bayern maintain a two-point lead in the Bundesliga ahead of Wednesday's key Champions League game at home to PSV Eindhoven.

Bayern's Arjen Robben and Frankfurt's Szabolcs Huszti both scored first-half goals.

After Germany international Joshua Kimmich put Bayern head, Frankfurt had Huszti sent off, but Mexico midfielder Marco Fabian scored their crucial second equaliser 12 minutes from time.
