Holders Borussia Dortmund were dumped out of the German Cup on Tuesday after a shock 2-1 defeat at second division side St Pauli in their Last-16 tie.
"It was a really bad day from us, we woke up too late. St Pauli did well, but we're out," Dortmund captain Marco Reus said after the match.
The hosts took an early lead through Togo striker Etienne Amenyido, then Dortmund midfielder Axel Witsel scored an own goal.
Erling Haaland gave Dortmund hope by converting a second-half penalty, but the visitors failed to force an equaliser. Neither Dortmund nor Bayern will be in the Last-8 draw for the first time since 2006-07.
