What a debut for Thomas Tuchel! The former Borussia Dortmund gaffer couldn’t think of a better maiden game in Bayern Munich’s dugout than a 4-2 (3-0) win in Der Klassiker.Recently appointed Tuchel led his Bavarian steamroller to a massive win, thus leapfrogging BVB and putting Munich giants back to the top in this intriguing Bundesliga title race. The entire derby was, absurdly though, solved in just ten minutes, even before the half-time interval.What was Kobel tryna do there 😭😭 pic.twitter.com/8WrN2Kl4m4— 𝓨𝓙𝓡 🇺🇸 (@RMASUF25) April 1, 2023 Jude Bellingham and his teammates were evenly matched with Bayern in the opening 13 minutes, but then something bizarre happened – Upamecano sent a long through ball, and Dortmund’s keeper Kobel’s attempt of clearance went terribly wrong as he missed the ball somewhat recreating that notorious Loris Karius’ mistake in the 2018 Champions League finals.Strange goal. Big mistake by Karius and Real Madrid getting advantage. #UCLfinal #HalaMadrid pic.twitter.com/Vosk5HbiWb— 𝕸𝖆𝖓𝖆𝖛 𝕯𝖆𝖛𝖊 (@Manav_Dave_24) May 26, 2018 That sudden 1-0 lead had obviously inspired Bayern to rush for some more of that, tarnishing the visitors’ defence and breaking them into pieces in the span of just ten minutes.Firstly, legendary Thomas Muller scored another of his trademark, kind-of-clumsy goals, slotting it past Kobel with his quadriceps following De Ligt’s probably unintentional assist.Thomas Muller’s career stats for Bayern: 🔴 655 Games⚽️ 234 Goals🎯 255 Assists He is eternal 🇩🇪👏 pic.twitter.com/KJDfZqOrVj— LiveScore (@livescore) April 1, 2023 They smelt Dortmund’s blood at that moment and exploited it superbly to wrap up the entire tie in the earliest stage possible.Leroy Sane fired it nicely from mid-range, and Kobel managed to save it for a second, but there’s probably nothing so Muller-eish than picking those leftovers and putting it right there where they belong – in the back of the net. 3-0!Another mistake by Kobel 😂😂 pic.twitter.com/JAYK3Ivl1L— almass (@almassrmfcc) April 1, 2023 Furious, inspired, unstoppable. Bayern at its best. And in the probably crucial match of the season. Tuchel’s smile was big as Germany.The second half, a genuine dead rubber, provided us with not so much action as the first one, although the Bavarians kept showing no mercy for the pale rival. Sane sent a meticulous pass from the right, cutting inside, to find Coman on the far post for a brutal 4-0 lead.Jump if you just destroyed Dortmund In your first game as Bayern head coach pic.twitter.com/lKxCIZXcmk— Annika (@Annikaay_) April 1, 2023 Moreover, Choupo-Moting hit a smashing volley to make it 5-0 on the verge of the 60th minute, but it was voided due to offside. On the other end, Emre Can netted from the spot for 4-1, and Malen added another one at the beginning of the stoppage-time to make and at least a bit more tolerable, 4-2.This statement victory, definitely will reestablish Bayern’s title credentials and take them more than just three points closer to their eleventh Bundesliga trophy in a row.BUNDESLIGA – ROUND 26FridayEintr.
