Against Lazio Rome it was all about everything for FC Bayern. In the end, Bayern won confidently. The game was still painful for Thomas Tuchel.
FC Bayern has reached the quarter-finals of the Champions League. After a first leg defeat (0:1), the Munich team won 3-0 in the second leg against Lazio Rome. Coach Thomas Tuchel still had a painful experience. You could already see the coach limping during the game. After the game he clarified.
“The motivational speech before the game cost me my big toe, I think,” said Tuchel on the streaming service Amazon Prime Video and added: “I was taken care of straight away, but then I didn’t have the courage to take off the shoe anymore because I I think I won’t be able to get in anymore.”
The team knew nothing about Tuchel’s injury
When moderator Sebastian Hellmann asked what exactly happened, Tuchel replied: “I kicked something. Not a box, but something like that and injured myself. A classic.”
The team had not yet noticed the coach’s injury. “They don’t even know it yet,” said Tuchel. “They were probably surprised that I sat for 90 minutes.”
