Thomas Tuchel’s head coach position is shaking violently after a series of disappointing matches.
Thomas Tuchel placed Dayot Upamecano on the bench against Bochum. However, fate forced Tuchel to put his student on the field in the 32nd minute. Upamecano replaced the injured Noussair Mazraoui. Just 7 minutes into the field, the French midfielder received a warning card for illegal tackling.
In the 77th minute, Upamecano was penalized again for using his elbow to hit his opponent in the face.
The former Leipzig star helplessly smiled reluctantly because he thought he did not intentionally make a mistake.
However, the referee judged that it was a dangerous dispute, so he issued a second yellow card, meaning the Bayern player was disqualified.
Die Roten, after losing someone, also conceded a goal from a penalty. The Bundesliga champions suffered a final defeat of 2-3 and are currently 8 points behind top team Bayer Leverkusen.
Before that, Upamecano also wrote a similar harmful scenario in the away trip to Lazio in the 1/8 round of the Champions League.
He carelessly kicked the opponent’s ankle in the penalty area and was sent off, leaving Bayern with only 10 people.
Ciro Immobile finished off Bayern with a successful penalty kick.
Bayern received a series of 3 consecutive defeats and Upamecano became a criminal in those 2 times. He is “sawing the chair” of Thomas Tuchel’s head coach.
The German military leader is at risk of being fired. Tuchel’s fate is in a situation where ‘a thread hangs in the balance, a thread hangs in the balance’.
