Bavaria sees red! The next bankruptcy threatens without Kane - is the pressure too high?
In a dramatic game, FC Bayern Munich lost 1-2 against Mainz on Saturday, which marked the first Bundesliga defeat of the 2024/2025 season. The injured superstar Harry Kane painfully lacked Bayern, which had an effect on the offensive - the team only brought it to a single shot on the opposing goal, and only in the last five minutes of the game. Mainz was able to prevail with two goals through the South Korean Lee Jae-Sung, while Leroy Sané only scored the connecting goal in the 87th minute, like Bild reported.
coach Vincent Kompany confirmed before the game that Kane, who has been in rehab in rehab since a muscle fiber tear on December 1st, could possibly return to the field against RB Leipzig. Nevertheless, the question of the dependence of the team of Kane arises, since Bayern could not build up the usual pressure on the opposing box in its absence. Max Eberl, Bayern sports director, made clear after the defeat: "We have a wide squad with the necessary quality." Eberl also rejected the idea of signing another striker at the winter break, since the club always plans economically and does not want to spend money "just like that", such as Despite the problems, Bayern remain the leaders, but the lead over Bayer Leverkusen, who won in Augsburg, has shrunk to four points. On the offensive, Bavaria rely on Thomas Müller against Mainz, but the team was not very efficient in the entire game and could not generate any pressure in the game structure. While Kane has already scored 20 goals in all competitions this season, other important players such as Manuel Neuer and Alphonso Davies are not available for injuries. The upcoming game against Leipzig will be crucial to steer Bayern's course of the season in the right direction.
