It is still too early for Bayern Munich to declare a big comeback against Bayer Leverkusen. But Thomas Tuchel’s team showed a remarkable sign of life and put the leader under a bit of pressure. If Granit Xhaka and Co. want to defend their ten-point lead in the 25th round, they have to win against Wolfsburg on Sunday.
FC Bayern Munich fulfilled its duty with the sovereignty and ruthlessness that it had lost for a few weeks under Tuchel. But apparently only for a few weeks: Harry Kane, who scored goals 34, 35 and 36 in the 34th game for Bayern, particularly shone in the resounding win against Mainz, led by Silvan Widmer as captain. In the Bundesliga he has 30 goals after 25 rounds.
