There were multiple upsets in the beautiful game this just past weekend and here are the big ones from Saturday that most likely ruined accumulators and broke the hearts of punters all over the world.

Bayern Munich 1-1 Borussia Monchengladbach

Having won their first three Bundesliga games scoring 15 goals in the process, Bayern Munich were expected to rip through Borussia Monchengladbach and were valued at 1.18 odds for a win at home.

Well, the village people came in form of a goalkeeper from Switzerland, Yann Sommer who kept Bayern from winning by making 20 saves, the most ever recorded for any goalkeeper in a single match in the history of football.
