South Korea's Hong Jeong-Ho netted and Brazilian winger Caiuby hit a late winner as struggling Augsburg shocked Schalke 2-1 on Sunday to stay above the Bundesliga relegation places.

Hosts Augsburg took the lead when Dominik Kohr's strike from outside the area cannoned off Hong's boot at a right angle, taking a wicked deflection, to wrong-foot Schalke goalkeeper Ralf Faehrmann on 34 minutes.

It was centre-back Hong's first Bundesliga goal in his third season with Augsburg.

Schalke, who like Augsburg have qualified for the Europa League's knockout stages, hit back when Sead Kolasinac slotted home on 70 minutes after Eric Choupo-Moting's shot was saved.

But unmarked Caiuby fired home at the far post in the 92nd minute to give Augsburg their first home league win since September and lift them up to 13th.

Schalke drop to eighth with just one league win in their last seven games to put pressure on coach Andre Breitenreiter.

On Saturday, Robert Lewandowski and Philipp Lahm netted as leaders Bayern Munich laboured to a 2-0 win against Ingolstadt to get back on track after last week's shock Bundesliga defeat at Borussia Moenchengladbach.

After losing in the league for the first time this season with a 3-1 humbling at Gladbach last Saturday, Bayern produced a subdued performance at the Allianz Arena before pulling away with two second-half goals.

Bayern coach Pep Guardiola gave Lahm a note on 58 minutes which contained tactical instructions which had an almost immediate effect.

Lewandowski claimed his 15th league goal of the season when he pounced on Jerome Boateng's long pass on 65 minutes before Lahm struck with 15 minutes left.

With second-placed Borussia Dortmund playing at Eintracht Frankfurt on Sunday evening, Bayern took their chance to go eight points clear.

Gladbach crashed to their first defeat in 11 league games under coach Andre Schubert in a 5-0 hammering at Bayer Leverkusen, for whom Javier Hernandez claimed a hat-trick.

'Chicharito' needed just 13 second-half minutes to score his three goals with ex-Germany striker Stefan Kiessling also scoring either side of half-time for Leverkusen, who are sixth after only their second win in their last nine games. Gladbach are fifth.

Hertha Berlin took the chance to leapfrog Gladbach into third when they romped to a 4-0 win at Darmstadt as Bosnia striker Vedad Ibisevic scored twice, Marvin Plattenhardt hit a free-kick and Salomon Kalou netted a fourth.

Fresh from Tuesday's Champions League win over Manchester United, which confirmed their place in the last 16 as group winners, fourth-placed Wolfsburg laboured to a 1-1 draw at home to Hamburg.

Werder Bremen continue to hover just above the relegation places after a 1-1 draw at home to Cologne as Nigeria striker Anthony Ujah had a first-half penalty saved for the hosts.

Hoffenheim enjoyed their first win since September when Jonathan Schmid's first-half goal sealed their 1-0 win at home to Hanover 96 which lifted them to 17th.

Stuttgart are bottom again after their goalless draw at Mainz on Friday.
