Schalke 0-2 Bayern Munich: Bayern Munich won its final match before the winter break. Jamal Musiala also paid a visit to Schalke 04, the Bundesliga’s biggest star.
Musiala, 19, is undoubtedly the finest performing player in the big leagues this season. He has twenty goals in 21 games prior to joining Schalke. Musiala was also the designer for Bayern in Gelsenkirchen. He was at the base with a superb heel seven minutes before the interval at Serge Gnabry’s 0-1.
Choupo-Moting, who scored his eleventh goal of the season following a well-executed counterattack. Musiala’s statistics are even more impressive: he scored twelve goals and assisted ten times in 22 games. He also scored in the Veltins-Arena, but it was called back owing to offside.
Ryan Gravenberch, Matthijs de Ligt, and Noussair Mazraoui sat on the couch to watch the Musiala show. After an hour, De Ligt approached the visitors’ lines. It was his first game back after missing two weeks due to a knee injury. On October 29, De Ligt played his final game. His return was welcome news for Orange national coach Louis van Gaal, who, unlike Gravenberch, included the defender in his World Cup squad.
Musiala also heads to Qatar, where he is one of the German selection’s standouts. On Wednesday, he will play a friendly match in and against Oman. Germany will then compete in the World Cup against Japan, Spain, and Costa Rica.
Schalke 0-2 Bayern Munich: Nagelsmann’s Mane concern
Nagelsmann held a press conference before Saturday’s away encounter against Schalke 04. Julian Nagelsmann does not want Senegal to gamble with Sadio Mane. Despite a fibula injury, the Bayern Munich forward has been included to Senegal’s World Cup roster.
Nagelsmann also stated that more medical examinations will be conducted. The question now is whether Mané will travel directly with the rest of the squad. “We’ll check up with him in ten days to see how he’s doing. Of course, Senegal would prefer him to play, but that is not realistic if he is in pain. Football is less essential than health. That applies to both us and everyone else.”
Nagelsmann reiterated, Matthijs de Ligt will most likely return after missing three official matches due to a left upper leg injury. “Matthijs has worked hard and feels well. He is no longer afflicted with anything. If nothing occurs in the last practice, he will fly with us and play tomorrow.”
