Bundesliga leaders Bayern Munich slumped to a 3-1 away defeat at Mainz on Saturday handing Borussia Dortmund the chance to take top spot.

Dortmund host Eintracht Frankfurt later in the day and can go one point clear with a win, with five league matches remaining this season.

Trailing 1-0 at half-time, thanks to Sadio Mane’s first goal since October, Mainz then hit back scoring three goals through Ludovic Ajorque, Leandro Barreiro and Aaron Martin.

Editor’s Note
In our post on February 19, 2023, in a story ‘Woman burns self to death over failure to offset N70,000 loan’, we reported that a middle-aged woman, simply known as Mama Dada, set herself ablaze over her inability to pay back a loan of N70,000 she reportedly took from a microfinance bank, LAPO. We have since discovered that the microfinance bank referred to in the story was not LAPO Microfinance Bank Limited. We apologise to the LAPO Group for the error in the identification of the name of the said microfinance bank where the deceased took the loan. The mix-up in the name of the MFB is not deliberate.
