After the unexpected defeat against Bremen, FC Bayern’s next home game is on Wednesday. Before the game against 1. FC Union, coach Thomas Tuchel has critical words. Also towards yourself.
FC Bayern doesn’t have much time to think about the defeat against Werder. Three days after the very weak 0-1 against Bremen, Union Berlin comes to the Munich Arena on Wednesday (8.30 p.m., Sky and in the WELT live ticker). A win in the catch-up game on matchday 13 is a must for Thomas Tuchel’s team, otherwise the championship will become a long way off. Before kick-off, Bayer Leverkusen leads the table by seven points over Bayern.
Bayern’s poor performance against Bremen obviously left its mark on the team. “It really shouldn’t happen to us that an opponent is hungrier than us. In general, you have to question the approach. “You don’t get the feeling that we know what it’s about,” said midfielder Joshua Kimmich.

A problem that Tuchel also sees. The Munich team is threatened with their first season without winning a national title since 2012. Bremen, who were perfectly positioned defensively, managed to take Bayern out of the game using simple means. Union is also not expected to launch an assault in Munich on Wednesday. “There’s no way it will just be flipped,” Tuchel replied when asked about the infamous switch: “We are very clearly aware of the initial situation.”
“That was absolutely below our level”
Tuchel criticized the attitude of his players, who obviously don’t always go to the maximum. “We can’t expect to play with the majority against deep opponents. We’re a bit too impatient at the moment, making too many mistakes and looking too long for the advantage situation. We are good enough, we are fast enough,” said Tuchel. His team has to be even hungrier and make more runs in order to create that one-on-one situation that may be decisive: “It’s just too easy for the opponents to take our courage away.”

Tuchel then appealed to his team, who at times appeared listless and without emotion against Bremen: “We can do a lot better because there is a lot of room for improvement in terms of passion, grit, duel behavior, enthusiasm. These remain the basic virtues in every football game. That was absolutely below our level for over 70 minutes, that wasn’t enough. That remains my responsibility. That will always remain the basis for a good game and I am responsible for ensuring that these virtues are right.”
