Bayern Munich cancelled Thomas Tuchel's post-match press conference following their third consecutive defeat.
The Bundesliga giants have not been at their usual dominant best this season with Xabi Alonso's Bayer Leverkusen setting the benchmark.
Bayern were thrashed 3-0 away to Leverkusen last week and suffered a disappointing defeat to Lazio a few days ago in the first leg of their Champions League last-16 clash.
But things failed to improve on Sunday with Bayern going down to 10 men against Bochum before losing 3-2.

They now sit eight points adrift of Leverkusen, who have only dropped eight points all season and remain unbeaten through 22 league games.
According to Sky Sports Germany, Bayern decided to cancel Tuchel's post-match press conference.
The reason for the cancellation is said to be due to Bayern planning to fly back to Munich this evening.
The defeat to Bochum left Bayern CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen furious, but he ensured Tuchel's job was safe for now.
When asked whether Tuchel would still be the club's manager for their game against RB Leipzig next week, Dreesen said: "Of course.
“I don’t believe in these monstrous statements of support for coaches.
"I know what you want to hear, but these oaths of loyalty are already over after a week.
"That's why I'm saying it in my own way. That's not a topic we're dealing with at the moment.

"We have to move on to the next ones."
Speaking after the game, Tuchel felt Bayern were unfortunate to walk away with nothing from the game.
He said: "The defeat wasn't fair, a lot went against us.

"We had an xG value of 3.4. We had four, five, six top-class chances, completely dominated the game and ourselves.
"We fell behind almost out of nowhere. We never stopped putting in the effort until the end.
"We then played outnumbered for a long time. I feel today's defeat differently than the last two. It wasn't deserved."
