The “Bavaria” again beat “Borussia” Dortmund and separated from their main rival by three points. Dortmund created many chances and was able to claim the best result. At the end of the game, Royce almost made the score 3: 3, Erling Holland did not notice many good scoring opportunities, until he finally managed to score a goal in the 83rd minute. “Bavaria” had a better implementation, moreover, the Hansi Flick’s team showed psychological resilience. In the first half, Josua Kimmich received a very serious injury, but Bayern, without one of their leaders, were able to lead the game to victory.
The guests started the game more actively, and Robert Lewandowski could have already scored in the first minute, but he hit the net from the outside. From time to time, Dortmund’s plan loomed. The “Borussia” tried to control the ball in their half of the field, and then sent it forward with a long ball to the Netherlands as soon as the opportunity arose. It seemed pretty straightforward and it worked with varying degrees of success. Holland once managed to break away from the defenders of “Bavaria”, but the blows did not work.
The second poignant moment of the match was also created in Bürki’s goal: Goretska punched him in the head at point-blank range, but the Dortmund goalkeeper was in place. Lewandowski scored immediately, but was ruled out for offside.
Scheme “Borussia” looked 4-2-4. For the locals, the ball practically did not stay in the center of the field and the emphasis was on the speed and technique of Reina, Sancho, Royce and Holland. It was after the Norwegian’s irruption that one of the key moments of the game happened, and possibly the season for Bayern. Bayern’s right-back Sarr, who replaced Pavar, made a failed pass to Kimmich, and Yosua, trying to rectify the situation, ran to the tackle over Holland. The tackle didn’t work out, the Netherlands got the ball and Kimmich suffered a serious knee injury and was replaced.
Sarr’s level still does not correspond to a match like Borussia – Bayern, and it is not surprising that Dortmund’s scoring combination passed through his flank. Sancho found a skillful pass to Guerreira and the Portuguese (the best player of the night at BVB) accurately shot Royce – 1: 0.
There were four minutes of extra time left until the end of time, but Bayern found a way to recover. Gnabry got a free kick close to Bürki’s goal, the Munich players played the ball very smartly and Alaba, with the help of a rebound from Meunier, hit the hosts’ goal.
The second half began with a good moment from the Netherlands, but the guests were also encouraged and quickly scored the second goal: Hernández made a great cross and Lewandowski scored his 11th goal in the Bundesliga with a header. Koman was able to immediately increase the lead, but hit the post.
Borussia did not abandon its principles and continued to exploit the speed of the Netherlands. But today the Norwegian had problems with the goal. However, like Royce, Reyna and Azar, who pushed from close directly into Neuer’s hands. Bayern showed how to seize their opportunities. Hernández, Lewandowski and Sane made an exemplary attack, which ended with a beautiful kick from the former City player.
Only after 1: 3, Holand finally managed to score. Guerreiro made a perfect pass to Holland’s play, the moment was difficult to execute, but the Norwegian, who had not scored in simpler situations before, did not disappoint this time.
The intrigue returned to the match, and Dortmund was supposed to compare, but Royce fired over the gate from 15 meters. At the end of the game, Lewandowski scored again, but the second time his goal was disallowed for an offside position.
3: 2. “Borussia” have shown that they are capable of playing with “Bavaria” in a more or less equal football, but they have not yet been able to defeat the Flick team.
