Bayern Munich want to postpone the game against Gladbach

by time news

Dhe German record champions Bayern Munich would like to postpone the game against Borussia Mönchengladbach on Friday (8.30 p.m. in the FAZ live ticker for the Bundesliga and on Sat.1, as well as DAZN) due to the tense personnel situation after eight corona cases. “The fact is that Bayern would like to cancel the game. But that decides the league, “said Gladbach’s sports director Max Eberl after a phone call with Bayern sports director Hasan Salihamidzic and a conversation with the German Football League (DFL).

The Gladbachers are currently preparing “as if the game were going to take place,” said coach Adi Hütter. In addition to the eight players around Manuel Neuer and Leroy Sané who tested positive, Bayern are also missing Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting, Bouna Sarr (both Africa Cup) and Josip Stanisic (injured). The national players Leon Goretzka and Niklas Süle were also not on the training ground on Wednesday morning.

Paragraph 2 of the DFL rules of play states under point 3 (“Dismissal due to illness of players”) that applications for dismissal are to be rejected if: a team “has more than 15 licensed players and / or amateurs who are eligible to play in the licensed team / Contract Players “are available. Of these, at least nine must be licensed players, including a goalkeeper.
