0: 5 in the DFB Cup game: Gladbach humiliates FC Bayern Munich
Status: 10/27/2021 10:36 p.m.
Borussia Mönchengladbach gave Bayern Munich a heavy rub in the DFB Cup.
Adi Hütter’s team won 5-0 (3-0) on Wednesday (October 27th, 2021) and thus advance to the next round. After the end against Holstein Kiel in January of this year & the Munich team also cancel the sails early in the cup. Manu Koné scored after just two minutes for Borussia, Ramy Bensebaini added a double (15th, 21st penalty), Breel Embolo continued cheerfully (51st, 57th).
Gladbach fireworks at the start
Manuel Neuer had only just really made it into his goal when the national goalkeeper had to get the ball out of the net. Koné had just played one-two with Breel Embolo after a mistake by Alphonso Davies in the penalty area and hit a low shot from ten meters (2nd). It indicated that it was going to be an extremely tough day for the 35-year-old.
Because the Gladbachers immediately followed up and created chance after chance. Embolo Neuer made a brilliant save (11th), but after a strong combination against a relatively disoriented Bayern defense, Bensebaini, who was rushing to the left, brought the stadium to a boil after a quarter of an hour and scored to 2-0. And the Borussia frenzy continued. Lucas Hernandez was clumsy in the penalty area against Breel Embolo. The following penalty whistle was a somewhat tough decision by Tobias Stieler, but Bensebaini didn’t care. The left-back casually tied the brace (21st).
Used tag for Upamecano and Co.
It took until the 34th minute until Bayern even managed to score a passable finish on Yann Sommer’s goal, but Serge Gnabry’s low shot was no problem for the Swiss. Although the Munich team had caught up a little in the meantime, they deserved the 3-0 break at break even in the heights.
Bayern coach Dino Toppmöll, who again represented Julian Nagelsmann, who was exposed to the corona virus, waived the change. In retrospect he might have done it differently and at least replaced Dayot Upamecano, who was already weak in the first round. Because the French did not look good at 4-0 through Embolo and was boiled off by the Swiss in a duel without much effort, as this prevailed after a long ball with clever physical use and completed freely in front of Neuer.
Embolo also marks the end
Upamecano was redeemed by Toppmöller immediately afterwards, but it didn’t get any better. Luca Netz put the ball through to Embolo, who was lurking on the offside line, and Neuer had a Gladbacher free for the fifth time that day and again he was powerless (58th). Now at the latest, even the most pessimistic Borussia player was euphoric by what was happening on the lawn. The game tumbled towards the end with a little more opportunities for Munich. The fans in Borussia-Park didn’t care about that for a long time, they had been singing since kick-off.
