BAYERN Munich are in danger of missing out on the Champions League knockout stages after Bordeaux claimed a shock 2-0 win at the Allianz Arena.

Juventus are two points behind the French side and four ahead of Bayern following their 1-0 win at Maccabi Haifa, courtesy of Mauro Camoranesi's winner in first-half injury-time.
