Sunday, in the Bundesliga, Bayern Munich defeated Stuttgart in style (3-0). Thanks to the inevitable Harry Kane, author of a double, and a goal from Kim Min-jae, the German club is trying at all costs to catch up with Bayer Leverkusen in the standings. All with a slightly weakened workforce. This is demonstrated by the decimated midfield of the Bavarians, who had to trust a Pavlovic – Guerreiro duo. Moreover, during an interview for DAZN before the meeting, Thomas Tuchel seemed particularly tense.

When the journalist from DAZNTobi Wahnschaffe, asked him what was happening with Kimmich and Goretzka, absent at the last minute, the Bayern coach replied: “You know it. You are sick”. “We can take a look at the lineup. What does that look like on the double-pivot?”reminds the journalist, “how do you know we play double-pivot?”, retorts Thomas Tuchel once again. The latter continues: “I won’t tell them that before the game. We have a match against a tough opponent. I’m not talking about the tactical idea today.”. Finally, Tobi Wahnschaffe adds that Konrad Laimer can help out in the middle, to which the former Chelsea coach responds coldly: “And who would play right back then?”. An icy atmosphere which proved the tactician right, subsequently victorious.
