Bavaria also shows questionable weaknesses on the defensive against Dortmund. Company consciously accepts this. Pays Bayern with missed titles?
Usually the following law applies in football: the offensive gains games, the defensive the titles. FC Bayern broke it again on Saturday evening. Also due to blatant defensive errors, the Munich missed the 2-2 against Borussia Dortmund on Saturday evening to transform their first early master match ball.
Last year’s champion Leverkusen actually served them with his mistake in the afternoon against Union Berlin (0-0) on the silver platter. The record champion could not use him. On the one hand because the offensive did not use its chances and therefore did not win the game. But also because the defensive proved to be anything but the title suitable again this season.
Above all, Min-Jae Kim, who failed twice at 0: 1: With a lost duel against Maximilian Beier, he made it possible in the first place. And with the fact that he then went into the header duel against the goal scorer, then also the goal. For this, Kim got the T-Online note six. Goalkeeper Jonas Urbig also didn’t look good at 0-1 because he stopped on the line instead of actively getting the ball out of the air.
Kim’s central defense partner Eric Dier also did not make a good figure in the goal and was also unable to prevent Serhou Guirassy from gate five meters in front of the goal, whose rebound Waldemar Anton used to the final score.
Bavaria was once again punished ice cold for his defensive errors in this season. Joshua Kimmich also came to this conclusion in his analysis. “Unfortunately we didn’t make the things in and then we are at the moment, especially this year, too susceptible to the back of the number of goals.”
Head coach Vincent Kompany should particularly hurt in his soul as a former world -class defender. To a certain extent, with his possession, pressing and extremely high risk in the high line of defense, he is partly responsible for this. The susceptible defensive is, so to speak, a logical and consciously accepted consequence of its unconditional offensive tactics.
He breaks the unwritten title law, so to speak, and tries to reverse: not the defense, but the unconditional offensive should lead him and Bayern to title. At Kimmich, T-Online asked Kimmich whether that was true?
The weaknesses are not only attributed to the defensive, he emphasized in his answer. But: “It is the case that you have the feeling that the opponents are very efficient against us,” said Kimmich. “We are already extremely effort, develop a lot of good chances and do not use them. On the other hand, the opponent then uses his first two half chances.”
A vicious circle, as Kimmich continued: “Then of course you have to run behind again and then it is clear that we have to risk something and that the opponent then comes to scoring opportunities due to the result.”
The result of the Bayern-persistent result was again observed with the 2-2 against Dortmund. Kimmich was already annoyed on the pitch on the pitch about the awarded preliminary decision in the master fight, which would have meant a possible victory and thus eight instead of only six points ahead of Leverkusen.
“Looking back, we have already left a lot in the past few weeks, especially against Bochum, Union, again today,” said Kimmich. “That is what annoys me at the moment that I have the feeling that we are almost always the better team, but we can’t win the games.” Kimmich’s final appeal to his teammates: “We have to become more adult and more effective.”
