A matchday where both FC Bayern and Borussia Dortmund looked convincing in their lopsided wins vs. Schalke and Gladbach respectively.
Dear listeners,
in this special edition, Christoph and Raphael look back at Xabi Alonso's Leverkusen's away match against Jose Mourinho's AS Roma at the legendary Stadio Olimpico (where Germany won the World Cup finals in 1990).
The race for number one has the BVB trailing Bayern by one point. RB Leipzig beat Freiburg and leapfrogged them and Union in the standings, while playing like a top 3 team.
The most suspenseful title race in recent memory has left Raphael and Christoph wondering whether Dortmund are too dumb to win the Bundesliga championship.
BVB has taken the lead after another disastrous effort bei Tuchel's Bayern who went down 3-1 in Mainz against the second best team of the second half of the season. Meanwhile Dortmund took their chance and won their match with struggling Eintracht Frankfurt 4-0, who have fallen to 9th place. So Frankfurt can probably say bye-bye to their hopes of qualifying for the European Cup competition.
Former star midfielder Xabi Alonso has turned Bayer Leverkusen into one of the most interesting and fun to watch teams in the Bundesliga.
Dear listeners,
today Raphael and Christoph have to discuss who wants it less between Bayern and Dortmund, who both messed up their games this weekend. The BVB were up two goals and one man but managed to give up 3 goals to lowly Stuttgart and end it in a 3-3 draw, while Bayern stumbled against lowly Hoffenheim and also drew the game 1-1.
On Tuesday he had to witness his Bayern fall 3-0 to Pep and the Citizens. Christoph was sensitive enough not to gloat too much, in contrast to the German Twittersphere where Bayern and especially Upamecano and Sommer where ridiculed.
This week we take a look back at all the Bundesliga action from the Easter Weekend and take a look ahead towards Bayern's Champions League matchup with Pep and the Citizens (great band name, by the way).
Christoph and Raphael will focus on the "German Classico" as well as the relegation struggle which is still very close for the five bottom dwellers of the Bundesliga.
