Bayern Munich snatched the championship lead in extremis in the top game of the 13th round from Bayer Leverkusen. World footballer Robert Lewandowski made it 2-1 for Bayern in Leverkusen in the 93rd minute.
Bayer Leverkusen wanted to sweeten the end of a difficult 2020 for their fans, with a win against Bayern Munich, at best, with the championship advantage over the Christmas period after all. Neither arose because the Leverkusen company also handed out expensive gifts in a direct duel with Bayern. Peter Bosz’s team deserved a point after a good first half and a combative second half, but Bayern’s Jonathan Tah made two mistakes, which Bayern world footballer Robert Lewandowski (43./93.) Exploited.
Leverkusen had a better start in the duel for the “Christmas Championship”. A corner variant completed by Patrick Schick in the 14th minute gave the home team a well-deserved 1-0 lead. Leverkusen seemed more gritty and aggressive in the game, but suffered a serious first defection two minutes before the break. Bayer keeper Lukas Hradecky and defender Tah rushed into a Thomas Müller cross at the same time, hindering each other and allowing Lewandowski to score goal 16 in the twelfth championship appearance.
Spurred on by the draw, Bayern pressed for victory after the break, but rarely held firm in their actions. Aside from a shot on the post in the 79th minute, Leverkusen didn’t allow much in the 90th minute. It took a second mistake for Tahs, who instead of clearing a ball at the feet of a Munich player, and world footballer Lewandowski to end 2020 Bayern-style. “I’m not sure if it was finally deserved,” even Munich’s Thomas Müller told Sky after the match.
Schalke Stevens panic button not working
The upcoming interim return of coach of the century Huub Stevens was no relief for Schalke at the moment. In the first of two games under the command of the Dutchman, who was hired as coach until the end of the year, the Royal Blues were defeated 0: 1 by the also relegated Arminia Bielefeld.
An inexplicable and hard-to-forgive misstep by Marcus Thuram led Borussia Mönchengladbach, who had four Swiss players in the later stages, to their first loss at home in seven months. Against Hoffenheim, the Gladbachers lost their nerve with Yann Sommer, Nico Elvedi, Breel Embolo and in the final phase Denis Zakaria 1: 2 – and Thuram with a score of 1: 1 ten minutes before the end. The son of French world champion Lilian Thuram was seduced by a spitting attack, which his coach Marco Rose described as “not excusable” after the end of the match.
