Sport-Club Freiburg v FC Bayern München - Bundesliga

A new approach at Bayern is making it difficult to manage Musiala. Bayern Munich’s coaching staff are currently adapting their tactical blueprint to suit the team’s evolving person

Serge Gnabry’s latest display against Real Madrid has underlined his value to both Bayern Munich and Germany, but the performance also presents a fresh selection headache for coach Hansi Flick. The winger, operating in a slightly reimagined position that allows him to drift inside and combine with the central playmakers, caused the Merengues constant trouble, delivering a goal and two assists. His ability to punish defenders with pace and intelligence has rarely been more evident, and the timing could not be better for a Bayern side looking to peak heading into the World Cup break. For Flick, the challenge is twofold: first, to maintain the momentum built by Gnabry without overloading the player; and second, to manage the expectations surrounding Jamal Musiala, the youngster whose own form has been impressive yet inevitably overshadowed by his senior teammate’s recent exploits.

The winners and losers at the DFB following the March training camp.

LEROY SANE

Germany star criticises fans for booing Sane

Germany striker Deniz Undav has hit out at supporters who targeted Leroy Sane with audible boos during the national team's narrow 2-1 friendly victory over Ghana. Despite Sane providing the crucial assist for the winning goal, his introduction in Stuttgart was marred by a hostile reception from the home crowd. The incident has led to a firm demand for unity from the squad as they prepare for the World Cup.
