Most defeats hurt, some hurt very badly, but no football result should be the cause of wishing death to anybody. But even those things can happen in this day and age. Bayern Munich manager Julian Nagelsmann has revealed he received death threats on social media following the club’s exit from the Champions League.When you spit up, it will come back at you – Nagelsmann’s statement fired up the underdogsThe Bundesliga leaders were shocked by a late Villarreal equaliser on Tuesday and went out on aggregate after losing the first leg 1-0 in Spain last week. The 34-year-old coach Nagelsmann is in his first season with the German champions, but it’s getting sour now. He confirmed that even his mother had been the target of abuse.”I know I will always get criticism from all sides – that’s normal and I can deal with it. But with 450 death threats on Instagram, it’s not so easy. If people want to kill me, that’s one thing, but they also attack my own mother, who doesn’t even care about football. I don’t understand it. As soon as they turn off the TV, people forget all decency. And they think they are the ones in the right. That’s the crazy thing.”Julian Nagelsmann says he received ‘450 death threats’ after Bayern Munich’s Champions League exit 😞 pic.twitter.com/J9qGbLS1c3— GOAL (@goal) April 15, 2022 Despite their exit from Europe, Bayern Munich are nine points clear in the Bundesliga and are closing in on a tenth consecutive league championship.Nagelsmann said abuse from online trolls was nothing new – even when his team wins.”I get them after every single game, regardless of whether we win or lose. There are more death threats when we play with a back three than when we play with a back four, and obviously, a few more whenever we lose.”BUNDESLIGA – ROUND 30Saturday16.30: (1.61) Dortmund (4.40) Wolfsburg (6.50)16.30: (1.77) Freiburg (3.70) Bochum (5.20)16.30: (2.03) Augsburg (3.50) Hertha (4.40)16.30: (2.06) Mainz (3.50) Stuttgart (4.20)19.30: (2.08) M’ gladbach (3.60) Koln (4.00)Sunday 16.30: (13.0) Bielefeld (7.25) Bayern (1.28)18.30: (2.29) Union Berlin (3.30) Eintr.Frankfurt (3.40)18.30: (1.32) Hoffenheim (6.00) Greuther Furth (10.0)20.30: (3.10) Leverkusen (3.50) RB Leipzig (2.47)***odds are subject to change
