Injuries disarm Bayern

After half an hour of the game at Borussia Dortmund-Bayern Munich when a pass from Sarr ended up at Haaland's feet and he faced the goal. Faced with the threat of the forward, Kimmich started and threw himself down and hard. His outstretched knee collided with the Norwegian's and he was prone. Haaland almost on the ground right in the center of the field but the worst part had been taken by the German. The referee stopped the game and gave him yellow while he was surrounded by Bayern doctors and covered his face where an expression between pain and regret came together. The yellow one did not matter. Kimmich was out of the game.

Hansi Flick quickly called Corentin Tolisso who came in to replace the German. The match, at that time, was 0-0 and would end with a 2-3 victory for the Munich players but paying the price of losing one of their best players.

Joshua Kimmich has an external ligament injury in his right knee, Bild reports. Already in the locker room, says this newspaper, the player told his teammates about the bad feelings. These are yet to be confirmed by the doctors who will test him shortly, although he does not point too well. Bild adds that the medical services are waiting to know the amount of damage the ligament received. If there is a tear, elongation or break, if so, it will be necessary to undergo surgery and could have a time of 2-3 months out.

The loss of Kimmich is added to those of Süle, due to coronavirus, Pavard, due to a contusion, Alphonso Davies, with another important ankle injury and the young people Armindo Sieb and Zirkzee. Saving the juveniles, Hansi Flick has two of his fixed holders out on the wings (although Kimmich also goes to the middle) and two luxury spare parts such as the German central and the French full-back. Of the four, three participated in the last Champions League final in which the Bavarians were crowned European champions.

Thus, the great champion, who continues to show hunger and high-level football, is gradually losing important players due to injuries. A Bayern that wins, but falls apart.
