The dream of a German final has ended as Bayern Munich lost 2-1 to Real Madrid. Despite a goal from Alphonso Davies, Real Madrid deserved the win with 57% possession and more completed passes. There was controversy over a disallowed goal, but ultimately Bayern officials were frustrated with the result.
The defeat marks the first time since 2012 that Bayern Munich will finish a season without winning a title. The team has been dealing with injuries and lack of depth, impacting their performance. Coach Tuchel expressed disappointment but acknowledged the reality of the situation and the efforts put forth by the team.
Despite their difficulties, Bayern almost secured a win against Real Madrid, but a mistake by Manuel Neuer led to a turnaround. With Tuchel set to depart and coaching uncertainty, important squad decisions are on hold. Time is running out to make these decisions and plan for the future of the club.
Bayern Munich will need to make crucial decisions on contracts, player sales, and acquisitions, but these are being delayed until a new head coach is in place. The club has faced rejections from potential coaches, with Hansi Flick a potential candidate. However, the future remains uncertain without a coach to guide important decisions.
The loss to Real Madrid highlights the challenges facing Bayern Munich as they navigate a difficult season. Despite their efforts, the team was unable to secure a victory and will need to make tough decisions moving forward. Time is of the essence for the club to plan for the future and address key issues in the squad.
