After yesterday's German cup match in Munich, Bayern's coach Thomas Tuchel was not only upset about the humble 1:2 loss to Saarbucken.

In the 25th minute of the match, Konrad Laimer suffered a leg injury and had to be replaced by Matthijs de Ligt.

"Again the same ligament, again the same pain. It's very painful," said coach T. Tuchel about the player's injury.

After thorough examinations, it became clear that the 24-year-old Dutchman will have to rest for a long time due to intense battles on the field.

Preliminary prognosis suggests that treatment and rehabilitation may take at least 4-6 weeks.

In this Bundesliga season, M. de Ligt scored 1 goal in 7 matches.
