Goals scored in each half by Karim Adeyemi and Julian Ryerson led Bayern to a 2-0 defeat in a match where Harry Kane struggled to make an impact. Reflecting on the loss, manager Tuchel pondered whether Jamal Musiala, who had participated in both of Germany’s victories against France and Belgium in the past week, might have been better utilized as a substitute rather than a starter, considering his exhaustion.
Speaking to reporters post-match, Tuchel stated, “I perceived Jamal [Musiala] to be very, very tired when he came back from the national team. In retrospect, I thought to myself whether it wouldn’t have been better to only use him in the last 30 minutes.”
Bayern’s defeat to Dortmund, coupled with Bayer Leverkusen’s dramatic late triumph over Hoffenheim, has left Tuchel’s team trailing the Bundesliga leaders by 13 points. With Tuchel departing Bayern this summer, he has resigned the title race to Xabi Alonso’s squad, raising the prospect that Bayern might end the season trophy-less for the first time since 2011/12.
The next Bundesliga fixture for Bayern is an away clash against Heidenheim on Saturday before they face Arsenal in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final tie. This competition represents their sole realistic chance of claiming silverware this season.
