Bayern Munich 2-1 RB Leipzig (24 Feb, 2024) Game Analysis\u060c<\/p>\n

\n

Harry Kane scored twice, including a stoppage-time winner, to guide Bayern Munich to a 2-1 victory over RB Leipzig on Saturday, ending a run of three defeats in all competitions and remaining eight points behind leader Bayer Leverkusen.<\/p>\n

The Bavarians, desperate to end a run of two consecutive Bundesliga defeats, including one in the first leg of their Champions League last-16 tie against Lazio, ended a turbulent week on a high note after deciding to part ways from coach Thomas Tuchel at the end of the season.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe played a very good first half, but we failed to take the lead,\u201d Tuchel said. “The second half was a bit complicated. We scored the first goal while Leipzig were strong.<\/p>\n

“We reacted well after the equalizer. This victory does us good after three consecutive defeats.”<\/p>\n

Bayern are in second place, eight points behind leaders Bayer Leverkusen, who lead with 61 points after their 2-1 win<\/a> over Mainz on Friday. Leipzig remained fifth with 40.<\/p>\n

Tuchel said talk of title chances at the moment was superfluous.<\/p>\n

“We don't need to talk about this [title chances]”, he said. “We have to win every game now. The situation is clear, Leverkusen has a big lead. Now we have to face this situation. \u00bb<\/p>\n

Bayern should have taken the lead in the first half when Kane hit the post with a header in the fifth minute and went close again with a bicycle kick.<\/p>\n

Leipzig got off to the better start<\/a> after the break, testing goalkeeper Manuel Neuer on several occasions before Kane intervened on the fast break after good early work from Jamal Musiala.<\/p>\n

Leipzig, fighting for a top four finish and a place in next season's Champions League, had two golden chances with Benjamin Sesko, but each time Neuer denied the Slovenian.<\/p>\n

The goalkeeper was beaten in the 70th minute when Sesko's shot was slightly deflected to catch him on the wrong foot.<\/p>\n

Kane, however, came to the rescue once again with his 27th league goal of the season, drilling in a powerful low shot to snatch all three points.<\/p>\n

“Harry has been doing this since he was 14, scoring 50 goals every year and that won't change,” Tuchel said.<\/p>\n

“It's mathematics. The more he misses, the more likely he is to score on his next opportunity.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
