Coming from behind with an injury time goal from Robin Hack, 1860 Munich secured a draw in their opening match of the season against Fortuna Dusseldorf.

Die Löwen would then go on to lose two consecutive fixtures against RB Leipzig going down 3-0 as well as a 2-1 loss to VfB Stuttgart with Musa Barrow scoring his first goal for the club.


TSG Hoffenheim have started the season three wins from three matches to sit at the top of the Bundesliga table while Borussia Monchengladbach and VfB Stuttgart remain undefeated.

At the bottom of the table, 1860 Munich find themselves as one of five teams who are yet to win a match so far this season.


Proving to be the most consistent player for 1860 Munich last season, Bekiroglu has continued his impressive performance into the 2021/22 season.

The 25-year-old opened up his account in the opening match of the season, scoring an impressive free kick against Fortuna Dusseldorf while continuing to make vital interceptions throughout August.

A point on the board is certainly better than none. Home form will be decisive this season, more so than another other season, I feel.

A tough start to the league and September doesn't look much easier. Still early days, who knows what could happen!

Some tough opponents to start against there. I wouldn’t be too disheartened and I’m sure the league position doesn’t reflect where you’ll be in 31 games time.

Continuing to suffer from poor form, 1860 Munich saw their losing streak extend to five matches after losing to VfL Wolfsburg, SC Freiburg and Borussia Monchengladbach.

Die Löwen managed to end their run with a 3-2 victory over FC Koln with the match winning goal coming in the 85th minute from 17-year-old Lothar Piller, who in scoring that goal became the youngest goal scorer in Bundesliga history.


The competition is tight at the top of the table with the leading seven sides separated by just three points. At the other end of the table, 1860 Munich find themselves in a fight to avoid relegation against Mainz 05, Hannover 96 and Union Berlin.


A change in formation from 1860 Munich manager Daniel Bierofka has seen Dennis Dressel go from the bench to a starting role in which the 22-year-old midfielder has taken full advantage. Known for his impressive work rate, the German has been at the club since 2014, making just 58 appearances.

Another thought month coming up but at least you got your first win. Sure there will be a few more wins out there as well over the next few months

The battle 1860 face is unquestionably difficult. There are going to be plenty of six-pointers for them, Union Berlin is certainly one of those in a very difficult month ahead.

Going into the match losing the past two matches against FC St. Pauli, 1860 Munich got off to a poor start when Goncalo Paciencia opened the scoring in the 18th minute while dominating possession for a majority of the first half. During injury time in the first half, 1860 Munich launched a counter attack with 17-year-old midfielder Lothar Piller getting onto the end of a pass from Musa Barrow to see the teams level heading into the break.

A back and forth physical battle ensued in the second half with both sides presented with chances but neither side was able to capitalise. Both sides saw multiple players issued warning with a total of eleven yellow cards handed out to players before the close of regular time.

Early in extra time, right back Herbert Paul fouled Mateo Klimowicz, receiving a second yellow card in the 97th minute to put 1860 Munich down to ten players. FC St. Pauli also went down to ten men when Keanu Staude was forced to leave the field due to injury after the side had used all its substitutes. Both times were unable to find a match winning game to see the game head into a penalty shoot-out.

The shoot-out got off to a poor start with Goncalo Paciencia missing the first attempt for FC St. Pauli with 1860 Munich midfielder Efkan Bekiroglu having his opportunity saved to see both sides level. The sides continued to score until Marcin Bulka saved Florian Carstens attempt to seal victory for 1860 Munich.

The draw for the third round of the DFB-Pokal saw 1860 Munich draw Bundesliga side Hertha Berlin who currently sit in mid-table this season. The match is set to be played at Hertha Berlin’s Olympiastadion Berlin on the 1st of February 2022.

leckuno & ScottT: It has been a very tough start but it is still only early in the season

A close-call, but you're through. It'll be nice to have a good run in the cup, but attempting to survive in the Bundesliga has to be the priority.

A tough start to the league but outside of the relegation zone currently and also through in the cup. This upcoming month is going to be tough with some massive games against Bayern and Dortmund but if you can take a point here and there survival is certainly on the cards!

Very tight in the league and in that cup game, but that morale boost is much-needed I'm sure going into the next few games in the Bundesliga.

Exited to see Munich back where they belong, keep on pushing

Staying up will be very tough indeed, but I have faith you can do so!

An impressive performance against Borussia Dortmund saw 1860 Munich hold on for a 0-0 draw. In the fixture against Union Berlin, 1860 Munich went ahead 2-0 but then were reduced to ten men after a bad tackle from Herbert Paul, Union Berlin managed to score twice before Musa Barrow scored in the 83rd minute to seal victory.

The first Munich derby since 2008 saw an impressive performance from Die Löwen throughout the match but the underdogs missed two clear chances followed by a goal from David Alaba sealing victory for Bayern Munich. In the final fixture of the month, 1860 Munich took on first placed Eintracht Frankfurt, coming away with an incredible 2-1 victory after a winning goal in the 83rd minute from Musa Barrow.


Reigning champions Bayer Leverkusen find themselves at the top of the table after eleven matches with several clubs close behind them. At the bottom of the table, 1860 Munich are four points clear of the relegation zone after a solid month of results.


1860 Munich captain Felix Weber led the club up the leagues and is now leading by example with bravery and determination as they battle to avoid relegation from the Bundesliga.

The 26-year-old has a close working relationship with 1860 Munich manager Daniel Bierofka and has put in impressive defensive performances which have been vital in seeing his side cause upsets throughout October.

That's a very impressive run of results. Beating sides like Union Berlin are integral to survival this season and picking up additional points against the top-dogs of the league go a long way.
