FC Bayern struggled to win in Gladbach for a long time. Also because a total failure gets a grade six. A young star, on the other hand, shines. The individual criticism.
FC Bayern Munich continues its impressive winning streak and plunges its old rivals from Mönchengladbach deeper into crisis. The record champions also won the 13th competitive game of the season at Borussia Park and remain the confident leader after the 3-0 (0-0) win. In doing so, Bayern set a European record. For the German record champions, it was the 13th success in a row since the start of the season – only AC Milan (1992/93) had previously achieved this in Europe’s top leagues.
The Gladbachers, who have not won since the start of the season, have been waiting for a sense of success for 15 games and are stuck in the bottom of the table. Borussia’s coach Eugen Polanski now has two crucial games in the DFB Cup against Karlsruher SC (Tuesday, 8:45 p.m.) and next Saturday at FC St. Pauli.
In front of 54,042 spectators, the decision was made after an hour. Joshua Kimmich (62nd minute), Raphael Guerreiro (69th) and Lennart Karl (81st) scored the goals for Bayern before the Rhenish week with games at 1. FC Köln in the cup and against last year’s champions Bayer Leverkusen in the Bundesliga. After Gladbach’s Jens Castrop (19th) was shown the red card for a hard foul on Luis Díaz and subsequent video evidence, Bayern played in the majority from the 19th minute. Nevertheless, the people of Munich struggled for a long time. Also because a total failure on Bayern’s part received t-online grade 6 for its weak performance. You can read the complete individual review here or in the photo show above.
The game had to start 15 minutes later due to a traffic jam on Bayern’s journey to Borussia Park. But that had no effect on the champion’s brisk start. Coach Kompany, who has just extended his contract until 2029, rotated to six positions after the 4-0 win in the Champions League against FC Brugge. As announced, ex-Cologne player Jonas Urbig was in goal, who will replace the suspended Manuel Neuer in the cup game next Wednesday at 1. FC Cologne and has therefore already received match practice.
