A moment of uncertainty from goalkeeper Jonas Urbig allowed Benedict Hollerbach to score a late goal as Union Berlin secured a 1-1 home draw with Bayern Munich, who still extended their lead atop the Bundesliga standings to nine points.
Bayern, chasing a record-extending 34th league title, climbed to 62 points. Champions Bayer Leverkusen, who are in second place, have a game in hand and travel to face VfB Stuttgart on Sunday.
Vincent Kompany's Bayern side began on the front foot and set up camp in Union's half, but the hosts were compact in defence and largely limited their opponents to long-range efforts in a goalless first half.
Bayern scored in the 75th minute through substitute Leroy Sane, but their lead lasted just eight minutes, as goalkeeper Urbig's weak punch out from a cross was headed home by former Bayern academy player Hollerbach.
