Mainz (AP) - RB Leipzig striker Emil Forsberg (29) still believes in Saxony's title chance in the Bundesliga.

The season is still long, said the Swede after the 2: 3 on Saturday at FSV Mainz 05 in the ZDF “Sportstudio”.

Leipzig will continue to try to intercept league leaders FC Bayern Munich.

"We already know that it will be difficult," said Forsberg.

«We have to focus on ourselves and win our games and then see if it's enough.

We already know that they have a good lead. "

Bayern can extend their lead over RB on Sunday (3:30 p.m. / Sky) to seven points with a win at FC Schalke 04.

Bayer Leverkusen (0: 1 against VfL Wolfsburg on Saturday) are in third place like VfL three points behind Leipzig.

"Today was a great opportunity for us to take a big step and move away from the teams behind us," said RB goalkeeper Peter Gulacsi (30).

"That's why the result today is very, very disappointing."
