Successful in the Champions League, not so much in the Bundesliga. Completely atypical for a Bayern coach, Julian Nagelsmann is risking his job because of the results in the domestic championship instead of on the European stage, which was mostly the case with the Munich giants’ strategists in previous years. The Bavarians are making one mistake after another in the German championship, after nine rounds they already have five mistakes and they can’t get to the leading position.Dortmund beat Bayern! 2-2!It is true that a draw with Dortmund under normal circumstances cannot be reduced to a setback, but if we take into account that Bayern had a two-goal advantage fifteen minutes before the end, the point taken from Westphalia is equal to that against any other rival. Honorary Bayern Munich President Uli Hoeness has slammed his side’s performance in Saturday’s 2-2 draw with Borussia Dortmund as ‘not Bayern-like’. Dortmund came back from 2-0 down to snatch a draw, with under-fire striker Anthony Modeste scoring in the fifth minute of injury time. “It’s actually not Bayern-like. If you lead 2-0, then you should win the game. The club should have had a lot of self-confidence and said to the opposition, we’re going to score against you a third time” Hoeness said on German television on Sunday morning. Nagelsmann: ‘I’m not responsible for the national team not winning against Hungary’Hoeness, who played 239 games for Bayern and later served as manager and president as the club established itself at the forefront of German football however dismissed the talk about sacking Nagelsmann. “There is absolutely no reason for a discussion of the coach’s future. Firstly, we started with three wins and secondly, we are still within reach of the top of the table. I’m absolutely convinced that when everything returns to normal, we’ll soon be on top of the table again” said Hoeness.##NAJAVA_MECA_6706253##Bayern’s CEO Oliver Kahn was also dissatisfied with the final result, or to be precise the fact that Bayern allowed to lose the two goal difference in 15 minutes. “The fact that you conceded the goal with the final whistle is all the more annoying. We did everything to make it 2-2 because we didn’t decide the game long beforehand. If we play one or the other situation even better, the game will be decided early on. It’s an amazing season, how we keep robbing each other of what we deserve. It takes a long time to remember a season where we had so many chances to score and didn’t take them – or, like today, forgot to close the sack and score the third goal“ said Kahn.
