Bayern Munich’s ammunition
By db-admin
DBasia.news – Julian Nagelsmann received two good news in his preparation period to concoct Bayern Munich’s strategy to meet the Berlin Union. Thomas Muller will re-adorce the starter and Sadio Mane can get back into the squad.
Bayern will fight Union Berlin which is their rival at the top of the Bundesliga 2022/23 in the continued match of the 22nd week, at the Allianz Arena on Sunday (26/02/2023). Both teams each collected the same points of 43 points and are predicted to be a fierce match.
Muller was pulled out in the early minutes due to the change of tactics when The Bavarians lost to Borussia Monchengladbach. With his strengths still fit, Nagelsmann wants to rely on the player in the match against Union Berlin.
At present, Bayern are still at the top of the Bundesliga standings with 43 points and have just lost to Gladbach. Meanwhile, the Union is in third position to overshadow the giant by packing the same points.
Bayern will face another challenger to the title, Union this weekend, Nagelsmann confirmed that the 33-year-old player will be included in the list of players.
“Thomas is an experienced player, he has been told why the decision was made,” Nagelsmann said at a press conference ahead of the match.
He is professional and an important player. The importance of him is detrimental as it goes beyond the game itself. He will be a starter on Sunday. He is aware of the overall situation. “
Nagelsmann’s players only won nine of the possibility of 18 points since the turn of the year, while their opponents have won 16 points in the same period.
A challenging match is expected to occur when facing Union, who never won the Bundesliga match against Bayern on seven occasions.
“I expect an extraordinary match,” Nagelsmann said. “Union always brings their football into the field, which is designed for counterattacks, with their physicality. Always uncomfortable to fight them.
Nagelsmann revealed Bayern could be reinforced by Sadio Mane, who had been absent since early November after suffering a foot injury that made him absent at the Senegal World Cup.
“Sadio Mane is unfit to be a starter,” Nagelsmann added. “But he is the option that we are grateful for and may be benched.”
