No real chance, hardly any shots on goal, but still got a point: Bavaria’s appearance in Leverkusen was unusual. This is also reflected in the T-online notes.
Even a tactic knar by Meistercoach Xabi Alonso did not ensure at least one touch of tension in the title race in the Bundesliga. Bayern Munich marches after the happy 0-0 with defending champion Bayer Leverkusen in the direction of 34th championship. After 22 game days, the team of coach Vincent Kompany remains eight points in front of the Werkelf, which remained winning without a win for the second time in a row. Such a lead at this point in the championship has never lost a team.
Alonso was undefeated in the top game, which was expected in excitement, even in the sixth meeting with his ex-club as a coach. Even a grip on the trick box before the game did not bring his superior team the urgently needed victory.
In front of the eyes of ex-Bayern coach Thomas Tuchel only played the table in front of 30,210 spectators in the sold-out Bayarena even without a nominal lace. The goal for Bayer did not want to fall. The Bavarians, on the other hand, had no real chance of scoring until the final whistle. Coach Kompany shouldn’t care. The Belgian stands as a Bayern coach in his premiere season before its first German championship.
In the end, the Bavarians only kept the zero because they defended with skill and all survived the dangerous situations with a lot of luck. On the other hand, little or nothing came off the record champion, who was not condemned to victory in view of the table situation. Throughout the first half, the guests did not make a shot – in the end they only came up with two. According to Sky, they have never had less since recording this statistics.
