Three days after their elimination in the Champions League against Manchester City, nothing is going well for Bayern Munich, now second in the Bundesliga behind Borussia Dortmund, after their fourth defeat of the season in the league, Saturday in Mainz (3-1). Five days from the end of the season, Borussia Dortmund settled into the leader’s chair, not letting their chance pass by outclassing Eintracht Frankfurt (4-0) early Saturday evening in their Westfalenstadion. Dortmund totals 60 points, one more than Bayern (59), and now has the cards in hand to bring down the Munich, ten-time reigning German champions, from their pedestal. Arrived on the Bayern bench at the end of March, Thomas Tuchel now has a record in all competitions of three defeats, two draws for only two victories, while the Munich players had so far only lost three games, all in the Bundesliga ( in Augsburg, Mönchengladbach and Leverkusen), in the first three quarters of the season. Eliminated from the Champions League and the German Cup, Bayern only have the Bundesliga to save their season and avoid a year without a trophy, which has not happened in the history of the Bavarian club since 2011. .
