Berlin, May 22 (Ians) A sense of optimism appears to offer some solace to Thomas Tuchel as dark clouds gather over Bayern Munich. “Next season we will do better,” the 49-year-old coach asserted, hinting at a glimmer of hope amid the turmoil currently gripping the club.
Tuchel casts himself as a soothsayer, forecasting sunnier days ahead while the Bavarians currently weather a relentless storm, with no immediate reprieve in sight. Painting a hopeful picture seems to be his chosen method to avoid confronting the sensitive decisions that 2023 will inevitably demand, reports Xinhua.
Leadership Issues
Amid speculation over the futures of club leaders like Chairman Oliver Kahn and Sporting Director Hasan Salihamidzic, the disheartening defeat to Leipzig underscored the team’s apparent leadership deficit. The squad’s unraveling on home turf after just 30 minutes was not the first instance of Bayern squandering a seemingly secure game this season.

Berlin, April 9 (Ians) Youssoufa Moukoko’s decider helped Borussia Dortmund overpower Union Berlin 2-1 while Bayern Munich moved 1-0 past Freiburg thanks to the hammer from Matthijs de Ligt in the 27th round of the Bundesliga.
The Bvb controlled possession from the starting whistle, whereas Union implemented a wait-and-see strategy on Saturday night.
Berlin kept all its men behind the ball but still couldn’t keep Dortmund at bay as the Bvb opened the scoring with 27 minutes gone when Raphael Guerreiro’s whipped cross into the box allowed Donyell Malen to mark his third straight Bundesliga goal, a Xinhua report said.
Union showed no interest to take over and were lucky in the closing stages of the first half as goalkeeper Frederik Ronnow defused Sebastien Haller’s dangerous header.

Berlin, March 9 (Ians) Bayern Munich’s victory over French giants Paris St Germain could trigger a wave of success for the Bavarians.
The 3-0 in aggregate against Psg in the last-16 round has opened doors for big dreams based on a wide range of realism, reports Xinhua news agency.
“If we keep on acting with that will, passion, and robustness, we will be hard to beat,” Bayern coach Julian Nagelsmann said.
The Bavarian coach’s statement was far from exaggeration but contained a newly grown taste of confidence.
The team seems to have grown together, including the coach, and the side managed to overcome doubtful times on the national and international stages.
Paris superstar Kylian Mbappe respectfully mentioned that “Bayern has built a team to win the Champions League.”
Matthijs de Ligt might be one of many examples causing optimism Bayern has adopted a lionhearted approach next to the individual quality of its players.

Berlin (Germany), March 9 (Ians) Bayern Munich advanced into the UEFA Champions League quarterfinals after seeing off Paris Saint-Germain 2-0 (3-0 on aggregate) thanks to second-half goals from Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting and Serge Gnabry in the second leg of the last 16 on Wednesday.
Paris Saint-Germain (Psg) made a bright start as Kylian Mbappe raced down the left wing before testing Bayern goalkeeper Yann Sommer with an attempt from a tight angle following a fast break with only two minutes played.
Both teams looked afraid to concede and focused on defence, with goalscoring opportunities remaining at a premium, reports news agency Xinhua.
Bayern created their first clear-cut chance with 15 minutes gone when Leon Goretzka’s low shot from distance called Psg goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma into action.
The visitors had their biggest opportunity to restore parity in the 38th minute but Matthijs de Ligt blocked Vitinha’s shot after Sommer was dispossessed in his own box.

Berlin (Germany), March 7 (Ians) Tension seems omnipresent around Bayern Munich’s offices and training pitches. The second leg of the last-16 round of the UEFA Champions League at Munich this Wednesday seems to have turned into the season’s most important encounter.
Not only coach Julian Nagelsmann announced the outcome is going to decide about good or bad when it comes to this campaign’s evaluation. After the disappointing exit against underdog Villareal in the last-8 last season, the Bayern coach is said to stand under close supervision.
Despite the 1-0 victory in Paris, the 2020 treble winners’ concerns couldn’t be greater as unpleasant memories are alive about the 33 minutes in mid-February when recovered Kylian Mbappe turned up and single-handedly changed the game’s pattern.
A fair amount of fortune again seems required to kick the can down the road on home soil as Bayern’s back row line-up has become a delicate puzzle.

Doha, Nov 21 (Ians) Netherlands coach Louis van Gaal has sounded a battle cry ahead of his side’s debut in the 2022 World Cup finals later on Monday, saying he believes his team can lift the title that has always eluded them.
The Dutch were runners-up to Germany in 1974 and to Argentina in 1978. They were beaten by Andres Iniesta’s injury time goal for Spain in South Africa in 2010.
Van Gaal led the Dutch to third place in the 2014 World Cup finals in Brazil, with a team that included players such as Arjen Robben, Robin van Persie and Wesley Sneijder, but in his press conference ahead of Monday’s game against Senegal, the coach insisted his current side is better, reports Xinhua.

Rio de Janeiro, Nov 8 (Ians) What is a seemingly innocuous World Cup opening phase for the Netherlands promises to be one of trials and tribulations for Senegal, Ecuador and hosts Qatar. While the Oranje are tipped by many to breeze through their first three fixtures, much less is expected of their Group A rivals.
Senegal have not progressed to the knockout rounds since 2002. Ecuador last did it in 2006. Qatar have never done so as they make their first World Cup appearance. The Netherlands will be determined to reassert themselves on football’s biggest stage after their absence from the 2018 tournament in Russia.
Here is a Xinhua’s breakdown of the four teams in Group A, which kicks off on November 20 when Qatar and Ecuador meet in Al Khor.

Having failed to qualify for the 2016 European Championship and the 2018 World Cup, the Netherlands are back among Europe’s elite.

Berlin, Sep 14 (Ians) After a 2-0 victory over Barcelona in the UEFA Champions League, Bayern Munich chairman Oliver Kahn might have recognized the importance of the Bavarians’ second group win to help vanish the crisis talking.
“It’s great we won the game and we enjoy it. But Barca is only a step in between on a long journey,” the former German international said. “We didn’t do perfectly on all sectors in the game.”
Like many, Kahn is talking about one of the best squads in the club’s history, while president Herbert Hainer mentioned Bayern’s economic advantage compared to several European competitors, reports Xinhua.
“We are well equipped due to sense-making financial procedures we strictly follow. As you can see, Bayern is highly attractive to international stars,” Hainer added.
For Kahn, it seems a logical demand triggered by the investments to expect a satisfying performance on the international stage.

While the 5-0 victory in the first round of the German Cup against third-tier side Viktoria Cologne was far from a surprise, all the more it was the performance of Mathys Tel.

Despite having to live with the burden of a youngster of his age’s exorbitant transfer sum of 20 million euros, the former Stade Rennais forward crushed the record of 19-year-old shooting star Jamal Musiala, who scored at 17 years and 205 days.
His coach Julian Nagelsmann announced to carefully develop the striker as “he is extremely talented but only 17”. The Bayern coach nevertheless predicted that Tel is on his way to building a brilliant career.

Berlin, Aug 18 (Ians) Bayern Munich have sold French defender Tanguy Nianzou to Sevilla but have the option to re-sign the 20-year-old, the Bundesliga champions said on Wednesday.
The centre back arrived from Paris Saint-Germain two years ago but never looked convincing. He was mostly a back-up and the arrival of Matthijs de Ligt has lessened his chances of starting.
“At the moment we are well stocked defensively. It was the player’s wish to have more opportunities,” Bayern sporting director Hasan Salihamidži? said in a statement.
“We will watch Tanguy’s development and that is why we have the option to bring him back to Munich. Sevilla are getting a top and very talented lad.”
The exact details of the deal were not made clear.
Bayern have had one of their busiest transfer windows for years with most of the movement coming into the club including Sadio Mané from Liverpool.
