"Bayern" representatives from Munich did not succeed in Saturday's match against Dortmund's "Borussia" neither on the field nor in the stands. Twice leading guests from Bavaria fell behind the BVB team. After the third goal, which was decisive in this match, the Bayern leaders in the stands received another blow - beer was poured over Uli Hoeness and Karl-Heinz Rummenigge. It is unknown whether this was done intentionally or one of the BVB fans simply could not contain their emotions after Paco Alcacer's precise strike. However, this was the least of these men's concerns - playing a difficult season, Bayern lost another match, increasing the gap from the leading Dortmund team to seven points. Since the beginning of the season, there have been concerns that Niko Kovac cannot handle the team's veterans, so he could be fired at any time. The Bayern leaders do not seem to be taking any action in the near future. Rummenigge stated after the match that he was pleased with the team's performance, and the future of N. Kovac is not currently a relevant issue. "Our team played top-level football and led twice. Even though we lost, I cannot blame the team," - said Rummenigge, acting as the club's chairman. In turn, the club president U. Hoeness stated that poor team results will not force them to change their policy and they will not invest in new players this winter. "The team will return in two weeks, Tolisso will be ready in the summer, so it will be like having two new players in our team. We plan to change the face of the team in the summer, but in winter we will stick with the same foundation," - said the Bayern president.
Rummenigge has confirmed that he is behind Kovac and that there is no internal discussion over the coach's future.
