Bayern Munich, a prestigious club in the German Bundesliga, where Kim Min-jae played full-time, fell into a slump of consecutive losses due to bad news about his exit.
Bayern Munich lost 2-3 in the 22nd round away game of the German Bundesliga in the 2023-24 season against Bochum held at the Bonovia Ruhrstadion in Bochum, Germany on the 19th (Korean time).
Munich suffered defeat amid the negative news of defender Dayot Upamecano's sending off in the 31st minute of the second half.
Munich, which was defeated 0-3 by leader Leverkusen on the 11th, lost 0-1 in the first leg of the round of 16 of the UEFA Champions League (UCL) against Lazio (Italy) on the 15th, and fell into a slump of three consecutive official losses.
It has been nine years since Bayern Munich suffered three consecutive losses since April-May 2015, when it lost to Dortmund, Leverkusen, and Barcelona (Spain) in succession. At that time, Bayern Munich lost to Augsburg and recorded its fourth consecutive loss.
Munich, with 16 wins, 2 draws, and 4 losses (50 points), has widened the gap with leader Leverkusen (58 points) to 8 points, putting a red flag on its ability to win the league for 12 consecutive seasons. Rather, they are being chased by 3rd place Stuttgart (46 points) by 4 points.
Kim Min-jae played full time as a center back, but was unable to prevent the team from losing. Although he worked with Matthijs De Ligt in central defense, it was painful to see Dayot Upamecano, who came on as a substitute in the 33rd minute of the first half, sent off in the 31st minute of the second half due to accumulating warnings. Upamecano played as right fullback, but bowed his head after being sent off for two consecutive games.
Minjae Kim played decent defense with 100% success in tackles (4 successes) and 67% in both ground ball duels (4 successes) and aerial ball duels (6 successes), but was disappointed with the team's come-from-behind loss. Football statistics media Footmob's rating was 7.4 points and SofaScore's rating was 7.5 points, respectively, giving them the second highest rating in the team.
The initial flow wasn't bad. Munich gained momentum with Jamal Musiala scoring the first goal in the 14th minute of the first half.
But the lead didn't last long. Bochum also scored an equalizer in the 38th minute of the first half through Takuma Asano. Munich then allowed a comeback by conceding the second goal to opposing defender Keben Schlotterbeck in the 44th minute of the first half.
Munich, who launched a counterattack, lost momentum in the pursuit due to Upamecano's sending off in the 31st minute of the second half. Upamecano, who had been warned once, hit Schlotterbeck with his elbow during a heading contest and was sent off after receiving a second warning. Munich, who even gave up a penalty kick, gave up their third goal to Kevin Stöger in the 33rd minute of the second half.
Munich scored a goal through Harry Kane in the 42nd minute of the second half, but that was all. In the end, they suffered a defeat by 1 goal. 안전 토토사이트
