Bayern coach Thomas Tuchel did not step up again in the dispute with football TV experts Lothar Matthäus and Dietmar Hamann.
The coach of the FC Bayern was asked before Munich’s Champions League game against Galatasaray Istanbul on Wednesday (9 p.m.) how he classifies the much-discussed surroundings of the 4-0 win against Borussia Dortmund with the time difference and how he generally prepares for TV situations. “It’s spontaneous and remains authentic,” replied Tuchel.

Tuchel had also vented his anger about the Sky experts’ constant criticism of his work and the Bayern team’s performances this season in recent weeks and reacted very irritably.
You will always “get a straight answer and an opinion” from him, said the 50-year-old.
Tuchel said he was dissatisfied with “specific reporting,” but did not elaborate further on the content.
