Borussia Dortmund humiliates FC Bayern of their stadium. The defeat within the prime recreation raises many questions for the champions. It exhibits the primary drawback going through Munich. And proves that the staff urgently must query itself.
DThe present matchday is symbolic of the highest of the Bundesliga this season. Bayer Leverkusen wins, as soon as once more with a successful aim shortly earlier than the top. Bayern-like is what we’d have mentioned and written up to now. And FC Bayern? Defeat once more, as has occurred far too usually this season. In phrases of factors, the file champions are actually nearer to fifth place within the desk than first. What a bitter end result for the world membership after 27 video games. This shouldn’t be suitable with the membership motto “Mia san Mia”.
The Munich staff confirmed far too little within the 0:2 (0:1) in opposition to Borussia Dortmund on Saturday night. So no staff seems that also believes within the title. The gamers are a thriller to themselves.
It's a deep perception when midfield boss Joshua Kimmich says after the large recreation that the angle gave us the sensation that it was about nothing. It was a sleepy, cold efficiency in a prestigious duel. BVB ran seven kilometers greater than Bayern. Munich goalkeeper Sven Ulreich was proper along with his assertion after the ultimate whistle: Once once more the staff confirmed clearly too little vitality. And you must query your self.
BVB received a league recreation in Munich for the primary time in ten years – and deservedly so. A humiliation for Bayern.
Your final minimal probability of successful the German championship is misplaced. No staff in league historical past has caught up with a 13-point deficit. Leverkusen might now turn into champions within the recreation in Dortmund in three weeks. In Dortmund, of all locations.
This season, through which Bayern made a mistake, BVB was not there when it comes to the title and has had an inconsistent season within the league to date. However, the efficiency in Munich was sturdy, with defender Mats Hummels significantly convincing.
Where this staff stands can be proven within the Champions League
Bayern are just too shaky. The numbers present how deep their issues are: They misplaced 4 of the ten second half video games and solely acquired 16 of the 30 attainable factors within the second half of the season, twelve fewer than Leverkusen. On common, virtually each fourth recreation was a defeat: Bayern misplaced twelve of their 50 aggressive video games underneath coach Thomas Tuchel.
Where this staff stands, what it’s actually able to or not, can be proven within the Champions League. The quarter-final in opposition to Arsenal London is a benchmark, the primary leg in England takes place in per week.
After two misplaced titles, the premier class is the final probability for Bayern to deliver this wild season to a cheerful finish. In order for this to succeed, the Munich staff must enhance enormously. And rapidly.
