Thomas Tuchel, the coach of FC Bayern, has shown himself at a loss after what may have been the decisive setback in the fight for the German soccer championship.
“I have no explanation how something like this can happen. We’re coming from a good phase. I see the team training, I see the energy, I see the spirit, the quality in training,” said Tuchel after the 1: 3 (1: 0 ) against RB Leipzig on the TV channel “Sky”, which means that rival Borussia Dortmund can overtake FC Augsburg on Sunday (5:30 p.m. / DAZN).
“If you play so far below your own level and the level drops constantly, you find it difficult to win games,” added Tuchel and saw the blame entirely on his team: “What RB plays is ok. It’s completely with us to do. We lost this game because of our behavior. If we lose, I want to lose to a better team.”
Tuchel criticizes behavior before 1: 1
Tuchel denounced the behavior of the players as they did when they conceded the first goal. “If you cross the street in New York, you walk differently than when you cross the street in Bogenhausen. If you walk without looking, you will be run over,” said Tuchel.
Bayern conceded the equalizer after their own corner when they were countered. You can jump over the opponent when the whole team is behind you.
He will “definitely not” watch the Dortmund game. “I wouldn’t have watched it even if we had won,” said Tuchel.
