FC Bayern takes BVB apart and delivers a show of force in Dortmund. Once again superstar Harry Kane excels with a hat-trick. Everyone happy? No, coach Thomas Tuchel struck out against his critics after the game.
It was a gate like a painting. Leroy Sané played a one-two with Leon Goretzka in his own penalty area with his heel. The FC Bayern midfielder drove the ball through midfield and passed it through for Sané, who was running along with him. The international player passed the ball across to Harry Kane, who pushed it over the line to make it 2-0. The goal was the climax of a show of force by Bayern against BVB. In the end, Dortmund were well served with a 4-0 win in the top game of the Bundesliga, as Munich’s performance was so dominant and powerful. After the game, you didn’t just feel like celebrating – Bayern coach Thomas Tuchel used an interview to settle accounts with his two biggest critics.
Bayern didn’t give Dortmund a chance, especially in the first half. BVB didn’t even shoot at Munich’s goal in the first 45 minutes; Bayern created chances and chances. Nothing was reminiscent of the embarrassing cup exit last Wednesday at the third division club Saarbrücken. “I expect angry Bayern,” Dortmund coach Edin Terzic said before the game. He should be correct in his assessment. “I had the feeling that Bayern were more aggressive in the duels. They won the important duels. They were more bilious, they came out of the cabin aggressively. The better team won,” said Dortmund goalkeeper Gregor Kobel.

The significantly better team. “It was bitter the way we played during the week. Today we showed ourselves from the right side. We were able to hurt Dortmund with our fast people on offense,” said goalkeeper Manuel Neuer.
“Now you have to make a 180 degree turn”
Tuchel was obviously hurt by the criticism of him and his team from Lothar Matthäus and Dietmar Hamann. The two experts identified Bayern’s lack of development and problems within the team. The interview with Tuchel after the game on Sky got out of hand. After a harmless initial question, Tuchel blurted out: “Despite rifts in the team and no further development, we won.”

Tuchel then turned to Matthäus, who was standing next to him: “Lothar can criticize. If he doesn’t do it, Dietmar Hamann can do it. It was great today, I’m happy for the team. Especially because we didn’t have such a good result on Wednesday. We’ve now heard everything that’s wrong, so it can’t be that bad after all.”

When asked by moderator Sebastian Hellmann about the obvious anger and irony, the Bayern coach said: “Yes, what? That is not allowed? You don’t like that?” Matthäus tried to calm down and said: “If I have a different opinion from time to time, Thomas, it doesn’t have to be expressed like that. I see it and accept it.”
Matthäus praised Bayern for their brilliant performance in Dortmund. This didn’t interest Tuchel. “When I hear Lothar talking about bad phases. We have two draws in the league and are leading in the Champions League,” said Tuchel. His team is struggling with a lot of injuries and he always has to make changes: “When I’m through, I want to leave. I don’t even want to be part of the discussion, it’s too much for me. Today you won 4-0, now you have to make a 180 degree turn. Have fun with it,” said Tuchel, putting the microphone on the table and ending the interview.
A few minutes later, at the press conference, Tuchel refrained from making a usual coaching statement about the game and instead said: “For no further development and a bad internal relationship between coach and team, it looked okay. You can find out the rest from the experts.”
