Bayern Munich's manager, Thomas Tuchel, will be leaving the team at the end of the season. This news comes after a tough season for the German giants, who have struggled to find their form and are currently out of contention for the German Cup. Their only hope for silverware now lies in the Champions League, where they recently secured a spot in the quarter-finals with an impressive comeback win against Lazio.
The first leg of their last 16 tie against Lazio ended in a 1-0 loss, leaving Bayern in need of a big result and performance to turn their season around. And they did just that, with a convincing 3-0 victory thanks to two goals from Harry Kane and a header from Thomas Muller. However, it seems that Tuchel's pre-match team talk may have gone a little too far in motivating his players.
In a post-match interview with CBS, Tuchel revealed that he had broken a toe while delivering his speech before the game. He had kicked the door with the wrong technique, causing him to feel like he had broken his toe. Despite the injury, Tuchel remained determined to end his tenure at Bayern on a high note.
The 50-year-old was later seen limping out of the Allianz Arena in some discomfort, a reminder of the passion and dedication he has for his team. This season has been a tough one for Bayern, but their recent win against Lazio has given them hope for the rest of the season. Kane, who has been in explosive form since his £100 million transfer from Tottenham, believes that this win can be a turning point for the team.
It was a big game for us and a perfect evening. We know we have to improve, but this win can really change our season. I'm proud of the boys and we have to keep this momentum going. Everyone was watching us after the first leg, and we showed that we can respond to pressure. This can be a turning point for us.
Kane's impressive performance this season has not gone unnoticed, with only PSG's Kylian Mbappe matching his goal contributions across Europe's top five leagues. The England captain's 33 goals and eight assists have been crucial for Bayern, who have struggled to find their form without him.
Despite Tuchel's impending departure, the team remains focused on their goals and is determined to end the season on a high note. Their recent win against Lazio has given them hope and momentum, and they will be looking to continue this form in their upcoming games. It was a tough season for Bayern, but they have shown that they have what it takes to turn things around and come out on top.
