Thomas Tuchel (50), the head coach, almost played against the opponent’s bench again.
German media 헤라카지노주소 Sport 1 reported on the 28th (Korea time), “Coach Tuchel, who was angry until the end of the game, had a hot war of words with the opposing team’s bench.”
The incident happened at the last minute of the match against Augsburg. Munich defeated Augsburg 3-2 in the 19th round of the 2023-2024 German Bundesliga held at the WWK Arena in Augsburg, Germany on Wednesday.
Munich allowed Hermedin Demirovic to score a goal in the second half when it was leading 3-1. Alexander Pavlovic collapsed after losing his balance during the Augsburg mid-air ball competition. Then, he shouted at Pavlovic who collapsed on the bench, judging that he was taking time.
Then, Tuchel was also furious. Tuchel had already allowed a pursuit goal in extra time in the second half, which made him uncomfortable. Tuchel walked towards the opponent’s bench and shouted, “Our player collapsed due to injury. Sit quietly. Are you crazy?” As the Munich coach next to him stopped Tuchel, the situation did not get worse. At that time, Tuchel’s angry cries were so loud that they were clearly shown on TV.
After the match, Tuchel himself explained why he was angry with the opposing coach. According to media reports, “Pablovic collapsed and we are concerned about his injury. Augsburg sports director Marinko Urendic complained to the referee that we were dragging our feet. That’s why I was angry.”
“Pablovich fell down and couldn’t move for a while. I was worried if it was a big injury. Fortunately, we had a few conversations and confirmed that Pavlovich was not in a very bad condition,” he added.
The collision reminded me of an incident in which Tuchel collided with Antonio Conte in August 2022. Chelsea manager Tuchel shook hands with Tottenham after a 2-2 draw. In the process, when Conte passed without looking at Tuchel, Tuchel pulled Conte and made a gesture to look him in the eye. The two exploded and argued, and the situation ended with barely being torn apart.
