ANKARA (AA) – Eintracht Frankfurt hammered Bayern Munich 5-1 in the German Bundesliga week 14 game on Saturday.

The hosts began the game very fast, even missed several scoring chances in the first 10 minutes of the game, shocking the reigning champions.

The Frankfurt side's pressure on goal paid off as Egyptian forward Omar Marmoush drew first blood in the 12th minute at Deutsche Bank Park.

Despite the Bavarians leveled the game a little for a while, the hosts' French midfielder Eric Dina Ebimbe slalomed his way into the penalty area until putting the ball into Bayern's net once again in the 32nd minute.

Before Bayern Munich overcame the last goal's shock, Swedish midfielder Hugo Larsson's good shot to the top corner made it 3-0 for Eintracht Frankfurt, just five minutes later.

Bayern Munich's German midfielder Joshua Kimmich took one back for his team before the half ended with a good long shot in the 44th minute.

Ebimbe took the stage once more in the second half, as he netted with a close-range shot to the near post in the 50th minute.

German right winger Ansgar Knauff beat Bayern goalie Manuel Neuer once more in the 60th minute and added insult to injury for the Bavarians.

Eintracht Frankfurt, which shocked their fans with a shocking 2-0 loss against 3. Liga's Saarbrucken on Wednesday, ended Bayern Munich's flawless run with a shocking result.
