We have a cushion now that Hamburg has lost. There are still a few matches to play, but the pressure is now less.
against behind half hamburg happens left lost others season worse
We lost against Hamburg in the first half of the season and did not become worse because of it. Instead, we left the others behind and if that happens again, I can live with this defeat.

Let's not get too carried away with this loss. The outcome of the title race is still in our hands and we won't let it slip away.

This affair is not only annoying but is holding Bayern back.
bets totally
He's totally innocent. He never bets and does not even play cards.
strong drinking play
I have no rules on drinking. In your young days, you can play strong even if you are not healthy. If they want to get drunk and smoke, they can, but not immediately after a match when the body is weak and vulnerable.

The national team players, especially, really got hit hard.

The national team members on Bayern have a great opportunity to restore their pride. It was a real debacle. I think several of my players have had Milan in mind since that game, and if that's the case we have a good chance.
hardly knows lead league match nervous played recent released results slowly start surprise taking together
Everyone knows recent results have dented our confidence, so it was no surprise we were nervous at the start and hardly put together a move. We slowly got into the match before half-time. Taking the lead released a lot of the pressure, and after that we played like the league leaders.

Everyone expected us to beat the bottom team but we went forward too much and forgot that Cologne can also score goals.
