Been away traveling for a bit. Saw that the members have called a meeting to vote to end the Qatar Sponsorship, and Kimmich is not vaxxed.
Nagelsmann is back from his covid absence. Very good news. Let's hope we can land a decisive victory tonight. It would be nice for Thomas Müller to score. He is 1 goal away from tying Thierry Henry's 50 goals in the all-time UCL goal-scoring list at 7th place.
https://www.bavarianfootballworks.c...pions-league-quarter-final-anthony-taylor-eplI will put this here under team news because I do not see a Bayern Villareal thread opened. Uh oh, we better be mentally ready. I tend to agree with this writer's request to UEFA. No more English refs. Anthony Taylor is allegedly not as bad as some of the worst, but by European standards that still makes him utterly diabolical. And given how Spanish teams like to play the referee whenever they face Bayern Munich, this Wednesday’s game looks like it’s going to be a painful affair. I agree with the author, Anthony Taylor is not one of the WORST English refs but come on this is so obvious that i could lead to bias. This request is not uncommon and I will give a recent example. Both Iran and Japan requested that when they play for a World Cup Qualifiers or an Asian club Championship, no refrees from Arab countries. When Iran requested it, the AFC ignored them because Iran does not have as much money as say Japan, which is a good segway to the next part of the story. When the JFA requested it to the AFC no Arab refs in club or international competition games because they have money, the AFC honored it and later Iran's request. If we ae comparing Europe to Asia in this story, us Bayern fans are like Japan fans, Villa Real fans are the Iran fans, with not as much influence. Therefore, if someone has contact to Aleksander Cerfin, we should all write to him and request no English refs, when Bayern play a Spanish side. Aleksander Čeferin
Well so far we are only down 1-0 with aout 10 min left to Villareal but we will have the return leg at Ali Anz it's not a complete disaster.
Well, at least the early World Cup exit means the German contigent will be healthy and rested for the start of the Rückrunde.
Well, at least the next World Cup will be in the Americas, and we all know how Germans love to kiss the hands of Americans. At least 1- they will be WELL Rested and 2- there is no need to politic, in the United States, Canada or Mexico. At least we will not be in Qatar, thank GOD!
Neuer's rehab is going well according to Abendzeitung and he is also in constant communication with HC Thomas Tuchel. He expects to be available for the start of summer training camp which will require a difficult decision from Salihamdzic and Kahn. Bei der Reha von @Manuel_Neuer läuft weiter alles nach Plan: Der Torhüter ist oft auf dem Fahrradergometer unterwegs, zum Start der Vorbereitung auf die neue Saison will er mit dem Team trainieren. Täglicher, positiver Austausch mit #Tuchel an d. Säbener Straße. #FCBayern #Neuer— Maximilian Koch (@_kochmaximilian) April 4, 2023
German Pokal Cup: Bayern Munich 1 - 2 Freiburg! Freiburg got a penalty in the last 30 seconds of the match and won 1-2, unreal match! Bayern have struggled in the Pokal for three seasons now. Will they win the Champions League now? I doubt it. Napoli struggling now, too. No team looks deadly as Hell at the end of the season! Could be many squeaky bum times...
I don't understand what happens to this Bayern. The team is far superior to Freiburg on paper. Thousands of times. Juventus, who are in a shaky season, easily overcame them in the Europa League. I understand losing to an inferior team in great form, not to an inferior team in average form. Freiburg's last five games, 2 defeats, 2 draws, 1 win. Disaster!
German Super Cup Final: HALF TIME: Bayern Munich 0 - 2 Red Bull Leipzig AMAZING second goal by Dani Olmo! Link contains video... 1690445833722843136 is not a valid tweet id
It was brilliant, great first touch, kept his balance and composure and stabbed it in clinically! Can Kane make an impact as he has done many, many times for Spurs in situations like this?
63 mins: Kane on! This will be interesting... 66 mins: Penalty for Leipzig... 3-0 Hat-trick for Dani Olmo!
Wow, Leipzig are a great side, Bayern looked poor. Should have played Kane from the start. Not a great way to make your debut. Bayern could end up finishing third this season unless they fire themselves up and Kane won't do that, I feel, this isn't Spurs which he called "home" since he was 11 years old. Might be the best Bundesliga in a many a year!
I mean, he has nothing to do but focus, focus, focus and win, win, win and then say, "howdya like me now?"
After Goretzka's injury, Tuchel's warning about the thinness of the team has already materialized. I am also 99% sure Leverkusen only played Stanisic last game to troll Bayern. Prior to their game against Wolfsburg, he had amassed a total of 30 playing minutes. Not great.
