‘Min Jae Kim and Kane both out’ Munich reveal starting lineup for Bundesliga final
Bayern Munich center back Kim Min-Jae will miss the Bavarians’ final Bundesliga match with an ankle injury.
Munich will play Hoffenheim in the 34th round of the 2023-2024 German Bundesliga at the Frisero Arena in Sinsheim, Baden-Württemberg, Germany, at 10:30 p.m. ET.
Munich has been a complete and utter failure this season. They have already lost the Bundesliga title to Leverkusen after 11 years under Thomas Tuchel, and they finished the season irrelevant in the UEFA Champions League, DFB-Pokal, and DFL-Supercup.
Nevertheless, the final match will be crucial. Munich is only two points behind third-place Stuttgart. A loss in the final match would mean that Stuttgart would finish second and Munich would finish third. This would be a blow to Munich’s pride, as they haven’t finished outside the top two since the 2010-11 season.
Therefore, Munich fielded their best squad for the final match of the season. Manuel Neuer-Dayo Upamecano-Matthias Der Licht-Joshua Kimmich-Leon Goretzka-Eric Dier-Alfonso Davies-Thomas Muller-Konrad Reimer-Matthys Tell-Alexandro Pavlovic will start for Munich.
Kim Min-Jae was left off the roster altogether. Kim Min-jae was in a Munich jersey before this season. He started all 16 games in the first half of the season, earning a regular spot in the starting lineup, but was reduced to a backup after the winter transfer window closed. Dier’s arrival from Tottenham Hotspur pushed him out of the starting lineup.
Nevertheless, Kim has been in the starting lineup in recent games. This was due to Der Licht”s injury. However, the injury happened in the last game. Kim was substituted in the 29th minute of the 33rd round match against Wolfsburg on March 13 due to injury.
He was eventually left out of the lineup for the final game of the season, leaving Kim with one goal and one assist in 25 Bundesliga games this season. Obviously, this is a 카지노 far cry from the two goals and two assists he scored in 35 Serie A games with Napoli last season. Being pushed out of the first team has had a big impact on his numbers.
There were many games where he didn’t even get to come on as a substitute when Dyer and Der Licht were on the bench. Out of 34 games, Kim missed a whopping nine. Next season, Tuchel will be gone and a new coach will take over at Munich. This could be an opportunity for Kim.
Munich will also be without their main man, Harry Kane. Kane was forced off in the second half of the UEFA Champions League quarterfinal second leg against Real Madrid with an injury.
Hoffenheim will start with Oliver Baumann, Ozan Kabak, Florian Grillich, Kevin Akpogoma, Pavel Kaderabek, Anton Stach, Grisha Fremel, Mariusz Wulter, Andre Kramaric, Ilas Bebu and Maximilian Beyer.
Hoffenheim also fielded their best eleven. Hoffenheim are in seventh place with 43 points from 12 wins, seven draws and 14 losses. Depending on the final result, they could qualify for next season’s UEFA Europa League. It will be an all-out war.
