Advantage of FC Bayern in the fight for the German Bundesliga!
Munich won the main game at RB Leipzig 1-0 (match report >>>) and seven games before the end of the championship they had seven points ahead of their first opponent. Possibly a preliminary decision in the tight race.
Leon Goretzka could have scored Bayern’s biggest goal of the season thus far with his winning goal, which, in addition to the three points, could give the defending champion the necessary tailwind for the end of the season.
“It was a big step today, but not the decisive one,” said the gold scorer. However, it was heard from colleagues that it could now be a march.
“It was an important step towards the championship. We do not want him to miss it,” announced Manuel Neuer.
Victory must be a sign
For Hansi Flick, FC Bayern coach, the victory was “an important step towards the championship”, although there are still seven games to play.
“The morale and mentality of my team were excellent, great compliments. Our great goal was to win the game, just to set an example,” that should have succeeded.
Leipzig did their job well and showed why it was a top game: “The first minutes were clearly on the trigger.”
Sabitzer struggled with exploiting opportunities
From a purely playful perspective, RB Leipzig proved that the long-standing league crest can also be challenged during the 90 minutes. Especially shortly after the restart, it was only at the end that the necessary consequence was missed in the not undeserved equalization, when several great chances passed by the goal, including one from Marcel Sabitzer.
“In a nutshell, the difference was that Bayern scored a goal with a chance. We played a very good game, we played dominant and if you don’t score, it’s very bitter,” said team player ÖFB Things together.
“After the break we presented ourselves very well. You only have to do one. We have to write that down.”
The evaluation of the opportunities could also be a factor that has finally helped decide the championship, not just in a direct duel. Julian Nagelsmann knew: “We have 31 fewer goals, that’s not a coincidence. We have to work to make more insensitive use of the chances we create.”
Focus on the cup
In any case, the championship is over for the Leipzig coach. Staying motivated is the task for the next few weeks.
“Of course you have to let that sink in. I told the guys that we still had a shot in the cup. And about finishing second in the Bundesliga. We are playing a good season, we have to keep playing, even if the first opportunity comes, a title is gone, “admitted Nagelsmann frankly.
Sabitzer already announced: “We have two days off, everyone should deal with it and then score it. So we want to make the best of it, defend second place and win the trophy, that has to be our goal.”
Easter would be an appropriate time to initiate a resurrection.
