The eight-point lead defends one point from the reigning German champion and remained without a goal: The bottom line for FC Bayern on Saturday evening at the Bundesliga leading game at Bayer Leverkusen. Ex-international Dietmar Hamann nevertheless sees the risk that the Munich might still run out of breath in the hot phase of the season.

Hamann made it clear that the record champion is currently neither nationally nor internationally the measure of all things in football for him. He referred to the harmless performance in Leverkusen again, in which a single conclusion came close to Leverkusen’s keeper Lukas Hradecky: “Two goal shots, none of which was already surprising. Now the exciting weeks are coming . […] The proof that you can play with the best are guilty.
According to the former Bayern professional, the Werkself from Leverkusen has long been playing the better and more handsome football, although the eleven of head coach Xabi Alonso in the table is still eight points after: “For me, they are the best team at the moment. At Bayern I don’t know if they are on when they were in autumn. “
Hamann recognized “a class difference” at Bayer vs. FC Bayern
According to Dietmar Hamann, “Leverkusen is currently at a different level than Bayern”. The vice world champion from 2002 even spoke of the fact that the game last Saturday was psychologically “a liver hook for Bayern”. Against the background that the two opponents could also meet directly in the Champions League in the round of 16 again.
“That was a class difference. Of course you can now say: the Bavarians didn’t want anything else. The question is whether they could do more,” said Hamann to 0-0, in which Leverkusen only presented himself in terms of exploitation of opportunities as much too negligent had.
