CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen specifically highlighted two players in his banquet speech after the 2-2 draw in the quarter-final first leg of the Champions League against Arsenal FC. Harry Kane, for his “insanely cool” penalty goal to make it 2-1. And Serge Gnabry, who scored the even more important 1-1 after going behind early.
“He fought back after a long injury break and scored a fantastic goal, thank you very much,” said Dreesen, but had to add: “And from the bottom of my heart, a speedy recovery.” In the 70th minute, Gnabry was finally substituted with a muscle injury in his thigh. His renewed injury was the tragic note of what was otherwise a very pleasant evening from a Munich perspective.
On Wednesday evening, the suspicion of a torn muscle fiber in the left thigh was confirmed. Coach Thomas Tuchel had already indicated that things weren’t looking good for the second leg. “That is of course very, very modest.” Gnabry is out for the fifth time this season. There are a few candidates for the title of the most unlucky person this Bayern season, but Gnabry is currently at the forefront.
He had to miss the first half of the season due to hip problems, a broken forearm and illness before suffering a hamstring injury in December. Every comeback was always followed by another injury. His modest record in the first half of the season: eleven appearances, one goal.
