It’s a dream goal that brings Bayern Munich back to the sunny side of football. In the 52nd minute, Matthijs de Ligt shot beautifully on the crossbar from about 25 meters. The 1:0 of the Dutch central defender decides the game against Freiburg.
The passerby? Jamal Musiala of all people, who set off the penalty for Freiburg’s late winning goal with a handball deep into added time against the same opponent as the cup was knocked out on Tuesday.
Tuchel brings four new ones
Yann Sommer also had his hands in the away win in Freiburg – or rather his feet: the national goalkeeper made an excellent save in the 70th minute after a shot from Sallai, which was deflected by Cancelo.
Coach Thomas Tuchel can take a deep breath after the success in Freiburg. The German has taken over the leader from Julian Nagelsmann and was already under pressure after the quarter-finals in the cup and before Tuesday’s Champions League cracker against Manchester City.
His changing starting eleven brings success: Tuchel lets Musiala and Gnabry start instead of Coman and Goretzka and replaces the suspended Upamecano and the injured Choupo-Moting with Davies and Mané.
Sow and Vargas both hit
The win was necessary just to stay at the top of the table. Dortmund defeated direct competitor Union Berlin at the same time on Saturday afternoon. Joker Moukoko made the difference with his 2-1 winning goal in the 79th minute, five minutes after his substitution. Also a relief for Dortmund with permanent goalkeeper Kobel: on Wednesday there was the cup against Leipzig.
From a Swiss point of view, remarkable things also happen in other parallel games. Silvan Widmer (up to 88th) and Edimilson Fernandes are both in the starting eleven at Mainz and are in the middle of a frantic closing phase: four goals from the 85th minute to make it 2-2, Bremen both reacted to the Mainz- lead in less than two minutes.
And both Djibril Sow from Frankfurt (1:3 against Leverkusen) and Ruben Vargas from Augsburg (1:3 against Cologne) score their team’s only goal. (str)
