LAGOS, Nigeria (VOICE OF NAIJA) – Following Bayern Munich’s shocking defeat against Bayer Leverkusen, Hasan Salihamidzic was left furious and lashed at Die Roten’s “lazy” players.
Apparently, Bayern went down 1-2 against Bayer Leverkusen despite Joshua Kimmich handing his team an early lead.
The Sporting director Salihamidzic acknowledged that even though the opponents played on Thursday night in the Europa League, they still came out the superior side on the pitch.
Speaking to DAZN, Salihamidzic said: “That wasn’t what Bayern Munich means. We missed everything. We let ourselves be overrun by a team that was still playing on Thursday. Bayer was better in every respect.
“I’ve rarely experienced so little drive, so little mentality, so little duel, so little assertiveness.
“This team is so good when they have a mentality from the start and go 100 percent. And she’s not as good when she’s playing like she is today. When she is lazy and thinks that she can do anything with the playful quality. She just can’t.”
The Bundesliga giant suffered their third loss in the ongoing Bundesliga season and have dropped to the second position on the league table.
With this result, they are now one point behind leaders Borussia Dortmund.
However, Julian Nagelsmann’s side will face Dortmund after the international break on 1 April.
