Bayern Munich held on to a draw yesterday against Borussia Dortmund in this first Klassiker of the season thanks to a goal from Jamal Musiala in the 85th minute. A point taken for the Bavarians, unfortunately spoiled by the injury exit of their scorer Harry Kane. Exited in the first half for a muscular problem in his right thigh and replaced by Thomas Muller, the English striker suffered a slight tear in a muscle fiber in his right thigh according to a Bayern Munich press release. A real blow for him and his club three days before the clash against Bayer Leverkusen in the round of 16 of the German Cup. His coach, Vincent Kompany, was pessimistic after the match for his presence on Tuesday “Harry has the feeling that it is perhaps not something too serious. But we will have to wait. He will have to do a scan and we will know more. But obviously, it will be tight for Tuesday. I don't know many players who can recover that quickly. » The Bavarian number 9 should therefore miss this meeting and could allow Mathys Tel, lacking playing time, to start.
Two weeks of absence
His tear not being too serious, the duration of absence is estimated at two weeks for the top scorer of the English selection. He should therefore miss the match against Heidenheim next Saturday as well as against Shaktar Donetsk on December 10. His return could take place against Mainz on December 14 depending on the progress of his injury but the club will not take any unnecessary risks. On December 20, the Munich residents will face RB Leipzig in a top-of-the-table shock and will need their number 9 to shake Peter Gulacsi's nets. The Bavarian number 9 should therefore miss these three matches and could allow Mathys Tel, lacking playing time, to start.
