Dayot Upamecano was sent off for a wild challenge inside the box, with Ciro Immobile dispatching the resulting penalty <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/harry-kane-bayern-munich-lazio-dayot-upcamecano-red-card-champions-league/bltb10cb60e61b31319" target="_blank">to give Lazio a 1-0 lead to defend in Munich</a>. Naturally, pressure is increasing on Tuchel after a poor result <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/harry-kane-bayern-munich-thomas-tuchel-champions-league-lazio/bltc85c72d793242246" target="_blank">and even worse performance</a>, and the ex-Chelsea boss was damning in his assessment of his side.

WHAT HAPPENED?

The German told reporters after the defeat: "No, I’m not worried about my future or [the] potential sack. We did everything to lose this match. It was in our hands. At a certain point we stopped believing, I’ve no idea why. There were many individual mistakes”.

WHAT TUCHEL SAID

But Bayern sporting director Christoph Freund called on the need for unity in these trying times, as he told <a href="https://twitter.com/kerry_hau/status/1757898867138281551?s=20" target="_blank">Sky Germany</a> after the match: "Of course he is struggling with the situation, which is very difficult for all of us. Our goal is to fight our way out of this together. We’re all in the same boat."

WHAT FREUND SAID

Bayern's misery on Wednesday night was compounded by them losing significant ground in the Bundesliga title race in their previous fixture. Tuchel was outclassed by Xabi Alonso as this season's surprise package <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/nightmare-harry-kane-bayern-munich-humbled-title-showdown-xabi-alonso-s-bayern-leverkusen-five-points-clear/blt47e18a906790131f" target="_blank">Bayer Leverkusen cruised to a comfortable 3-0 win</a>, pulling five points clear after 21 games and <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/video-leroy-sane-raging-harry-kane-bayern-munich-team-mate-punches-camera-bayer-leverkusen/blt02476f0690b22ca6" target="_blank">leaving Bayern's players visibly furious</a>.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Tuchel's side come up against 14th-placed VfL Bochum in the Bundesliga on Sunday. That match should represent an easier assignment for the Bavarian giants, but any slip-up will surely mean the <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/barcelona-bayern-munich-thomas-tuchel-xavi-europe-managerial-merry-go-round/bltbe9013b997a0c07f" target="_blank">German coach's days are numbered.</a>
