Thomas Tuchel made his debut as Bayern Munich coach with a 4-2 win over Borussia Dortmund at the Allianz Arena, which until before the game held the lead.
The eyes were on Tuchel, because a few days ago he took over the technical direction of the club after the sudden dismissal of Julian Nagelsmann during the club stoppage for the FIFA date.
But Tuchel only needed the first half to convince, as Los Bávaros went into half-time thrashing 3-0 with an own goal from rival goalkeeper Gregoria Kobel (13′), and a brace from Thomas Müller (18′ and 23′). .
Once the actions resumed, Kingsley Coman scored the fourth goal at minute 50. The reaction of the black and yellow team came from Emre Can (72 ‘) and Donyell Malen (90 °), but the marker did not move again.
With the result, Bayern leads with 55 points, two more than Dortmund (2nd) and four more than FC Unión Berlin (3rd) with 8 games to go before the league championship ends.
But the tests will not end soon for Tuchel, who must face Freiburg on April 4 and 8 in the quarterfinals of the German Cup and the Bundesliga respectively.
The acid test will come on Tuesday the 11th when they visit the powerful Manchester City led by Pep Guardiola and Erling Haaland at the Etihad Stadium for the quarterfinals of the UEFA Champions League.
