Munich – FC Bayern Munich has been eliminated from the DFB Cup early for the fifth time in a row. There was a 0-1 defeat against champions Bayer Leverkusen.

Sports director Max Eberl was visibly and audibly annoyed in the mixed zone after the cup exit.

FC Bayern’s sports director Max Eberl reacts clearly to criticism

FC Bayern Munich’s sports boss Max Eberl appeared in front of the press after another cup defeat. A conversation with Kicker reporter Georg Holzner became increasingly heated. The 51-year-old was particularly annoyed by the question about Munich’s problems with supposedly stronger opponents. “That’s not the question today – ‘bigger opponents’. “We played with one man less today, even if you couldn’t see it on the pitch,” Eberl even praised his team.

When asked again, Eberl showed his displeasure even more clearly. “Do I have to justify myself now?” the former professional shot out, who then added to the reporter: “Mr. Holzner, I know that you are very critical, that you question everything, but I don’t really give a shit about that “, Eberl vented his anger at the criticism of this game.

Eberl with praise for FC Bayern despite bankruptcy

For sports director Max Eberl, this game between FC Bayern and Bayer Leverkusen does not fall into the category of defeats against larger opponents, as the German record champions had to play outnumbered for over 70 minutes. The 51-year-old has much more “great respect for the team”.

The Munich team had to do without top scorer Harry Kane due to injury in the top duel against the Rhinelanders. The Englishman suffered in the stands during the defeat. (jsk)
